It just looks like 4 video cards in one computer to me. :gotme: I guess I have no use for 4 separate monitors. ---

> [@PumiceT](#): > > It just looks like 4 video cards in one computer to me. :gotme: > > I guess I have no use for 4 separate monitors. I guess you don’t understand how SLI works then. Essentially this is the same as 4 CPU’s in a server. They all work together on ONE monitor. The video geometry calculations and fill calculations are done across the 4 video cards. They do not act as 4 seperate entities. So that means, if you want to play Doom3 at 1600x1200 with all the eye candy turned on, etc, you CAN at an extremely high framerate… ---
