The issue with Quad-SLI (and even plain SLI) is that to get the best performance, you need to have the game optimized for it. Crossfire is more flexible from a game compatibility standpoint. Oh, and that's the other thing: multi-GPUs do NOTHING for non-game appications (except 3D modeling/animation rendering, IF the applications support it).

And with the iminent release of Core 2 Duo (Conroe) some games that were CPU bound, may not be anymore...

Also, ATI did release a dual GPU card (about 7 years ago): http://www.ati.com/products/rage128pro/ ... x/faq.html
