First of all this is not about my personal SLI system, as i dont have one but rather a discrepancy between T-Break.com and hardocp.com

In a recent HardOCP article regarding sli there was a comment regarding games supported

The Chronicles of Riddick was just released for the PC, and this game is extremely demanding on video cards, especially in SM 2.0++ mode with soft shadows. This game could also really benefit from SLI, but again, sadly, there is no SLI support (and we are already halfway through the game).

however on this T-Break Article they use Chronicles of Riddick as a benchmark and it does show a performance difference

Just seems a little odd, any ideas?
 
Notice in their graphs they are not comparing Non SLI (i.e. one GPU) compared to SLI (two GPU's) they are comparing 6800U SLI and 6600GT SLI to each other with two different CPU's.

I sent an email off asking about their driver setup and if they found SLI to be working at all in that game.

I am waiting until dual core processors and ATI's multirendering implementation is out before I decide on an upgrade.
 
I think it is really neat that lately I have seen several posts by many of the [H]ardOCP editors!

I have never seen posts from them before like 3 days ago.

I saw Kyle Bennett was online by looking at the hardforums main page today and I almost decided to PM him just to say hi and to tell him how much I love the site.

Then I thought, "leave the man alone". He does need starstruck "fans" PMing him all the time.

I made the right choice.
