Dual 6800 Ultra PCI-Express!

[Da Whip]

Found this today. An Asus card w/ 2 GF 6800 Ultras. It needs 4 power connectors. Yikes :burn:

ZOMG! Quad GPUs, anyone?

Can you guys say, CPU limited?

dont say that! thats Scary!

[wpmegee]

What's scary is laying down $300 for the 800W PC P&C or the $200 for a 600W OCZ power supply you'll need for a rig to power 2 of these.

CPU Limeted Factor what proceesor will be able to handle these babys?

[Sentential]

oh my god... :drool: Thats the biggest vcard ive ever seen.

[David Coleman]

I want it in AGP :)

[DarkAssassin]

actually, maximum pc said that the card has dual 6600 processors, 256 MB ram, not SLIable, and will only work on one type of MB (don't remember which brand). The card will be shipped as a package w/ the mobo for $600

[Adrayic]

:drool: sweet jesus :drool:

[Kenshiro]

I dont think you can run quad GPU. It said in the article this is a single card SLI solution. It's already running in SLI mode.

[Firey_chasm]

ye, doesnt it ship with the asus MB or something? and the mb is sli capable but two of these cards cant run sli. :/ I fail to see why they would ship it with an sli mb

[Blackmage]

here's a pic from that site (6800U) yeah and there anit no sli connector :shrug:

this card will proably work as well as 2x6800 ultra in sli mod, in another words attempt to move back everything to a single card again

Maybe this solution might be used on intel boards that don't run dual pci express one day

Gigabyte had something similar but that was using 6600 and had run with gigabyte board http://www.anandtech.com/video/showdoc.aspx?i=2315&p=1

I think its really cool to have SLI in single card solution. Saves space and weight.

You are referring to the Gigabyte board. They have had the 3D1 Duall 6600GT out bundled with their mobo for awhile now. This new board is an Asus Dual 6800Ultra board. Asbolutely insane. If I could run four of those and a pair of Dual Core processors I could elimintate my heating bill entirely! :clap:

[Voodoo Rufus]

Just when you think you've seen the pinnacle of graphics processing someone comes and smacks you upside the head saying "What the heck were you thinking?".

I like it. $800 later.....

Goodbye gas bill. Hello power bill!

:beer:

Notice the difference. I translated the link from Chinese to English, it is a GF 6800Ultra 256MB

Forestalls alone to explode Hua Shuodan PCB double 6800U to reveal the card exposure
Date: 2005-3-9 composes: Ford

After nVIDIA promotes the SLi technology, very reveals the card merchant to start to attempt to reveal through this technology two the card the core to concentrate together on PCB, like this not only may effective reduce the cost, also can let two cores the interconnection response times be quicker. But at present promotes based on this technology reveals the card merely to limit to the 6600GT core, although 6,800 cores also can support SLi, but because the circuit design is excessively complex, its difficulty must go far beyond the 6600GT integration.

" Technique fine 3D1 only two 6600GT core integration"

Today Hardspell.com understands through the special channel: China large is researching and developing based on the SLi technology, uses 6,800 Ultra the double core, list PCB reveals the card! ! We have also obtained the related picture, it is reported, at present this funds revealed the card already to enter the internal test stage, perhaps near future will be able to push to the market.

" Hua Shuojiang two 6800Ultra core will integrate on PCB"

We may see from the picture, two 6800Ultra core is interlocked by about lays aside on PCB, because if two cores parallel layings aside, the PCB width extremely will be considerable, but such result will be PCB highly greatly increases. Reveals the arrangement and list 6800Ultra which saves reveals the card to be same, uses four angles to surround the way, around each core all has 8 pieces to reveal saves, on the picture looked 清显 does not save serial number, but may estimate reveals the aggregate capacity which saves to be allowed to achieve 512MB.

Because two cores with electric quantity big increase, therefore even if is PCI the Express connection, revealed the card or to arrange two 6Pin outside to meet the power supply slot, also was needs 4 power sources the 4Pin connections.

Another the question which let us note is this funds reveals the card to use still was the ancient NV45 core, also was the bridge joint chip is sealed nearby Die the edition, sound queer was nVIDIA is also is primary supports PCIe version after NV48 GeForce 6800 only then foreign to announce the SLI technology, but unexpectedly in NV45 had this technical the integration, what was more interesting was the Chinese large research and development this card time definitely is in front of NV45 as well as NV48, Hua Shuo at very early time has started to study 起单 the card SLI technology?

oooo they both look nice. Cant wait :p

[g0dM@n]

They should make a Dual Core AGP.

[Blackmage]

They should make a Dual Core AGP.


Would agp ne able to mange that amount of bandwith?

[Fireball_dbz]

Would agp ne able to mange that amount of bandwith?

i believe it would be limited but i think agp can handle that.... but i believe these companies would want to put this on an pci express board, although i don't believe it would sure saturate its full capacity of its bandwidth.... still something to drool about right :drool: :attn: :beer: :burn: :clap: but if its possible imagine quad 6800 ultra cores..... in sli of dear, i'd sell my dog just to buy that(act of desperation).....

[Nandro]

Yea... I'd sell your dog as well.

[g0dM@n]

I'd do more to that dog than just sell it for quad Ultra.

Newegg's Dual 6600GT with Mobo (Gigabyte) (http://www.newegg.com/app/viewproductdesc.asp?description=13-128-282&DEPA=0)

I wonder how a 6600GT dual would perform compared to the 6800GT and 6800 Ultra...

[crash013]

Holy crap! Thats pretty sweet!

New Pics of Dual 6800 Ultra compared to single 6800. :eek:
