Duel Core 6600GTS?

[glynn]

I just got my subscription to Atomic and there is a review on the Gigabyte Duel core 6600GT in there and from the initial Reports from them this thing is a Screemer.They showed it besting a X800XT and SLI<ED 6600GTs in just about every benchmark?
The only letdown of this board i can so far see is you need the Gigabyte nForce4 motherboard to support it?
I was wondering if any other of the [H] natives Has heard or seen anymore on this or has had the chance to try one.

In the [H]ardOCP review they tried it in one of the ASUS SLI boards and it worked.

There are reviews of it:

Having read them, and owning/benching a 6600GT SLI rig for comparison, I'd say it's no better or worse than a 6600GT SLI rig. (which is pretty good!)

I'm very happy with dual 6600GT's. I'd love to see them work it out so you could run dual cards with 2 GPU's each one of these days

Dual core 6600's on SLI and Dual Core Processors on a Dual CPU board (4GPU + 4CPU).

I'd really like to see the benchies for this!
