Dual GPU from Nvedia...!

I just visited Tech report and saw Nvidea's GeForce 9800 X2 and I could not stop myself from posting it here. This is the multi-GPU multiplication because it is a combination of a pair of G92 graphics processors onto one card for double G92 performance ...!
The idea of cramming a pair of GPUs into a single graphics card is nothing new as one of the most recent example is AMD's Radeon HD 3870 X2, which stole away Nvidia's single-card performance crown by harnessing a duo of mid-range Radeon GPUs, but currently G92 GPU is considered as faster than any single graphics processor AMD has to offer. So you can realize the performance when you of two of them ...!Dressed all in black, the GeForce 9800 GX2 looks like it means business. That's probably because it does. This beast packs two full-on G92 graphics processors, each running at 600MHz with a 1500MHz shader clock governing its 128 stream processors. Each GPU has its own 512MB pool of GDDR3 memory running at 1GHz (with a 2GHz effective data rate) on a 256-bit bus. For those of you in Rio Linda, that adds up to 1GB of total graphics memory and a whole lotta bandwidth. However, as in any SLI setup, memory isn't shared between the two GPUs, so the effective memory size of the graphics subsystem is 512MB.
