J-Mag said:None, because the current drivers won't work. They barely work on Quad SLI...
heatlesssun said:QUAD-SLI works well apprently on a few newer gamesL
F.E.A.R.
HL2 E1
Quake 4
Doom 3
Weazmeister said:Ummm, is it me or does that image scream BS....Check out the PCIe slots, you can see two of them, yellow, but not the ones that are on the bridged cards...i.e. two cards are plugged in and two cards are standing upright just because of the bridging connectors?
???

Weazmeister said:That's all nice and good, nowever the picture above is NOT that board Check the yellow PCIe slots, as I pointed out earlier vs the "teal" slots on the QuadRoyal.
Dillusion said:And too bad Octal-SLI doesnt work. There are NO drivers for 8 GPU's in SLi and nvidia has no plans of supporting it either.
synaps3 said:I don't know much about the SLI on this board, but I wonder if it could run the cards as a dual SLI setup, that way you could have dual quad SLI... That way you could play games and still be supported by NVIDIA, but at the same time be able to do massive video processing on a quad monitor setup. Can you say "play BF2, FEAR, Q4 and DOOM 3 at once?"
Isn't anyone reading the posts above them?mavalpha said:Also makes me wonder if two sets of SLI would work on it. As in, 7900GTX+7900GTX, and then another pair of 7900GTX+7900GTX, separately. Finally a way to run multiple monitors in SLI?
Actually, even the black bar you see isn't the PCIe slot- it's a floppy (or IDE?) connector. The cards hide each and every one of the PEG connectors.mentok1982 said:In the pic in this thread the only PCI E slot you can see is the bottom one and it is black,
just like the bottom PCI E slot on the Gigabyte board.
The yellow on the very right hand side of the bottom card is a Sata port and it matches the
yellow Sata ports on the Gigabyte board.
Right above the yellow Sata port you can also see the white IDE port.

Viper87227 said:Ok... heres a question. How they hell did they fit all those cards. They have a maximum of 7 spots to work with, not 8. ALso, look at where the last video card is. It ends at the bottem of the board, it does not extend past it. Look at the gigabyte board now. The last PCIE slot is the last slot on the board. With a GX2 in there, the 2nd card would be past the edge of the board itself.

Drexion said:Hello, the image is not faked. The system was put together by Gorillakos@XS, and you can head over to his thread there for more pics etc.
The drivers do not work with Octal atm, however windows successfully recognizes all 8 cores.
Lazy_Moron said:I believe it. That Gigabyte board is real. It came out like a couple months ago. I dont think its sold anymore, or at least on Newegg. I totally forgot about that board until now!!
Drexion said:Some of the people @ XS have access to all sorts of illegal hacked drivers (which reportedly come from China), which unlock crazy capabilities (like Crossfire on a nforce board) and other sorts of wierd shit.
They dont ever release these drivers to the public, so if you see stuff like that over there don't think that you will be able to do so, and dont waste time asking 'how?'
