nVidia discontinuing current SLI 8x chipset to be replaced with a worse one?

The SLI chipset is being replaced by the "SLI XE" chipset, but by the looks of it, its somewhat less robust: No ActiveArmor, 8 USB ports instead of 10, and not "Optimized for Overclocking", whatever that means. Huh?

Well then, to Crossfire I go!

well its not like the intel sli boards were really all that great for overclocking in the first place.....and thats what we're al here for ....right ???
