looks like someone had a lot of time on their hands to pull off that one... lol a 2000 watt PSU. I wonder if Nvidia is actually considering a dual core version of the GTX 280 down the road.

It's not even a particularly good/thought through photoshop :rolleyes:

As if they'd just have the 6 & 8 pin power still on there. :mrgreen:

i love how the card is gonna be a damn mile long, that factor alone makes it look fake, and besides, nvidia makes dual CARDS not dual GPUs :finga: maybe when they go 55nm or smaller on the GTX's that is possible

i assume they'll make a GX2 counterpart somewhere in the near future, be it in the generation, i dont know

You'll see a real GX2 once the next generation is nearly ready, just as they did previously :roll:
