Single X1800XT card can beat SLI
 

Finish overclocker Maki managed to overclock the card to 12278 in 3Dmark05. He overclocked the card from a default 625MHz core/1500MHz memory to a magnificent 877.5MHz core and 1980MHz memory. He used dry ice and he cooled the FX 57 to 3617.5 MHz to reach this score.

This score is higher than normal non overclocked two Geforce 7800GTX in SLI as we tried to play with those two cards here. This little experiment shows one totally unexplored part of R520 chip as it can be overclocked sky high. Maybe this can help you make a buying decision. We've even heard you can reach 10000+ in 3Dmark05 with normal air cooling. Stay tuned, we're trying to do just that.

however, I doubt it'll do the same on quake4 :p

we all know 3DMark03/05 score has no bearing on real life performance:)
