EN6600GT Dual GPU from ASUS - Info @ Digit-Life

Published: | Posted By:

These guys crack me up from time to time.
"I wonder, is it possible to install 2 x EN6600GT Dual card to get yourself a whole 4 GPUs? Perhaps, it is, because the novelty from ASUS has two 14-pin connectors, one in the place of SLI interface, so if you take a couple of cables..."
They do have a point though. The nForce4 comes with 20x lanes of PCIe. 16x go to video leaving 4x for expansion cards and onboard items. By changing the SLI daughterboard that makes SLI happen (on the ASUS board) you "could" get the second 16x PCIe slot to run in 4x mode.

The theory is there but I'm thinking 4x/2 lanes of PCIe for 2 GPUs and 16x/2 for the other 2 GPUs would be impractical and hinder performance.
