Perhaps it will. Perhaps it might not. Remember, SLI is still in its beginning stages. I bet AMR will have just as many problems. I just hope both companies get it sorted out before consumers go bankrupt, trying to keep up with the latest of fads.

Well, since AMR is not out yet, I am sticking with ATI Graphic's on a nForce 4 Ultra mobo, so that later on I can upgrade to a mobo with AMR.

Then All I need is another ATI Graphic's Card.

Maybe the 512MB GDDR3 X850 XT :rolleyes:

I wouldn't say that Crossfire is SLI ripoff, that is far from it. ATI has been using there Crossfire technology for a long time. The US & Canadian military have been using it for there virtual fighting & such.

Crossfire on paper looks & performs better than SLI, but I would like to see benchmarks though ;)

And this is where CrossFire shines. In Real World Performance. The AMD chipset supporting ATI's Crossfire runs a lot faster than Intel's Chipset running Crossfire.

This will make a difference in performance, but NVidia already has a SLI setup for Intel, so I say Benchmark AMD chipset against Intel's in Crossfire & SLI ;)

AMD Rocks Real World Performance  :yes:

There is really no competition at all for this IMO.  Nvidia by far.

I've been using nForce for a wile. They are powerful chipsets. NVidia is amazing when it comes down to chipsets.

ATI on the other hand is new to making AMD chipset's. I really would like to see NVidia's best against ATI's best ;)

I am wondering also. I hear the new Xpress 200 for laptops is quite nice.

I like Intel chipsets for an Intel CPU... I dunno... I feel a little more comfortable and a little more stable with Intel chipsets. Nvidia chipsets are darn good, I like their performance and reliability. I'm itching to try one of these ATI chipsets. Via and SiS though... eh... ehh... I've never really... liked 'em... but... I haven't ever had any problems.

Ya know.
