As multi-core CPU's are being release, I'm sure that video cards in the future will also have multiple GPU's... Parallelization rulez!

Luckily for you a few graphics cards with more than one GPU has already been released. Sure not in the same Die but there's atleast to gfx chips on it.. I know Gigabyte released a 6600GT 256mb card that had 2 6600GT cores on it. And Asus has one 7800GT with 2 cores on it.. The prices on the other hand... well lets just say it costs more than standard SLI...

I think I can manage to live through another one or two years and then buy some relatively cheap single-board multi-GPU video card...

No idea about how good komplett are in the UK but here in sweden they are kickass...

And please this is no advertising its just a little tip for the man. Also as I said I would recommend getting the XT instead of the XTX as the only thing that differs is the clockspeed and that is easily fixed...

Just do a little reading on hardware forums aobut graphics cards overclocking and you'll get all the info you need. Or search some on google for "ati overclocking" or so.

Overclocking must always be done with some caution though so read up on it first and try to overclock a little by little until you find the optimal speed (on most XT cards thats higher then XTX clocks and without any problems!).
