No one has been talking about tri-quad vcard settings though. Hell, we haven't even talked about SLI. Only GTX590 would count as two cards but I recommended GTX580, which by the way, you can use with older processors if you overclock them enough (make sure your cooling is ok).
As for bottlenecks.. You sure about that? There are processors that cost $2000 .. You sure quad xfire would still bottleneck? Well those aren't for normal consumer use for sure but you said '' even the most expensive ''  |
Yes, no CPU can fully unleash a tri/quad vga setup.
Anyway, for my next upgrade I'm considering a CFX setup after I get to 4ghz... anything lower than that will surely botteneck 2 5850's.
