Oh ok, then in that case you can only run the two cards (Quad Fire) I dont' believe about that guy running all three neither.

Not unless they hack the driver.

I seem to recall reading something about more than 4 GPUs being possible in 7... I will have to look around for it though. Might be something "in schedule"

# of cards is driver limited not OS limited. even if you "hacked it" to allow more it probably would scale really bad

Nice, we shoulda did Aquamark today too, dammit, forgot about that one, lol.
I'll get the 4-way up and running.

aquamark is fast becoming one of my favorite benches.

You can push every system component to the absolute limits and it will still run. Bench responds to tweaking of all kinds. You can squeeze points out almost anywhere

Really? Had much luck with 3/4way SLI in XP? heehee

Yes the limitation is handled by drivers, but it is based on OS by decision of operating system. You will probably people to hacdk it for Vista or even XP, but first it will be available as an option with the Windows 7 drivers :) Happy now?

Wasn't it easier to just say it as I originally did?
