I was watching the movie swordfish and was wondering if the big rig is even possible ??? Does anyone know the spec of it???

Conumdrum · 08-01-11, 06:09 PM

Big Rig what? Truck?

TorqueRanger · 08-01-11, 06:19 PM

The rig use to create the multi headed hydra withe mutli setup screens

Conumdrum · 08-01-11, 06:49 PM

Dunno, don't remember the scehe, fun movie tho, was on TV today.

mbentley · 08-01-11, 07:04 PM

seeing as that movie was made in 2001, the technology that would have been used then (even if it was the highest end of the day) would be weak and slow by today's standards. basically if you wanted a setup like that, all you would need to do would be get enough video cards to allow that many displays.

Ohh sure, just a CPU, case and a few AMD GPUs with Eyefinity.

And some graphics designer to make the neat screensaver.

Mounting for the Monitors, off the shelf stuff.

You know, I came into this thread, and said "This thread better include John Travolta".

That's Hugh Jackman, not as good a dancer as Travolta.

1x 6990 can run 5x1 eyefinity. That's only two short of what you see there, with just a single video card. I'd say yes, that's entirely possible.
