Yeah it's for visualization and CAD stuff, blah blah etc etc. Kiss my ass, I WANT!! Can we get a dual 9500np card for 1/2 the price though? ;) :D

good lord, that would be awesome

[Twigs]

wow...

[Silversinksam]

It could be a nice photochop hoax, this has been done before :rolleyes:

Nah, it's really, but it looks.... old. Not really like a 9800, for like a 9000-ish card.

Photochopped pics are always possible . I'll however wait and see .

Looks fake to me. I was playing around with it in Photoshop for a while, and the top edge is blurred and slightly rounded. Also, I noticed that there doesn't seem to be much around the second GPU... There doesn't even seem to be any traces, but that could be because the image is too low quality to tell.

That picture looks kind of funny. Three things to think about. 1- Why would they build it and not ATI, would ATI even let them do it. Sapphire does not own the rights to ATI technology.
2- That card length would seem to be a little long for the AGP standard. 3- Can't seem to find out any more info then what is in those links. Something like this wold be exciting and you would see more.

All though ATI did build dual processor cards, remember the ATI Rage Maxx that had 2 Rage Fury Pro 128 GPU's and 64MB of ram?

HERE (http://www.ati.com/support/products/pc/rage128pro/ragefurymaxx.html) is a picture.

I used to really want one of these.

That is my two cents.

Found another ONE (http://slashdot.org/articles/02/07/09/132202.shtml?tid=152). It stated that this card is in full production? ANyone have one of these?

Also another thing about that "Dual 9800". That looks like a FireGL card to me. As far as I know they are the only cards out that have "Only" dual digital monitor connections (you can see that clearly in the picture) and no regular VGA port. Much like THIS (http://www.ati.com/products/fireglx1/index.html) one. Humm...
