re: <ominous Catalyst 7.7>
I did call attention to them -- obviously the first drivers to support triple crossfire properly. Is it somehow also bad news for AMD that Crossfire x 3 works and SLI x 3 doesn't?

By the way, the guy who managed to hit 3DMARK06 of 27,039 (90% of the AMD score) had his two HD2900XT cards clocked 42% higher than the AMD system.

Excellent RWT disclosure article on CSI by David Kanter. realworldtech.com

A key page: realworldtech.com

The Intel scheme can achieve 2-hop latency "most of the time" vs. 3 for AMD, but when it can't there's a big penalty.

I was surprised to see that >2 nodes (e.g., MP servers) will not be supported until 2H09.
