 |  Gigabyte creates first dual-GPU graphics card Chicago (IL) - Gigabyte will announce Friday the industry's first graphics card running two graphics processors on one board. According to sources, the SLI card will lift current 3DMark2003 record revels by a significant margin while being priced lower than ATI's and Nvidia's single-GPU high-end cards. http://www.tomshardware.com/hardnews...16_115811.html

| Ati created the Rage Fury + some specialized cards with two or more GPUs, 3Dfx did it with their latest creation, XGI does it.... Well, not so uncommon after all |

| Besides, they develop that kinda technology because they find SLI technology less productive then 2 GPU's on a card...  |
