You're forgetting the possibility of single-board SLI. Does the name "Quantum3D" ring a bell?

I didn't think that SLI used the PCI/AGP bus. The V2-V2 pass-through cable provided the link - I think. Remember, Quantum put 2 V2s on the same card. The difference btwn V2 & V3 is the integrated 2D architecture.

Re: fps - frames are everything from Myth to Quake. If there was a network product that guarrunteed a minimum bandwith/throughput, I'd take all my money and buy their stock. It's all about the 'twitch'.

It all becomes clear after a couple of hours of multi-player gaming.
