yes , that maybe true but count the whole world .... :wacko:

 

just one question why did they make a board like this it is meant for the 30 inch displays and up owners ...? and i think they are satisfied with 2 or three cards ....

 

Even in the whole world... the amount of people running 3 or 4 graphics card in a single PC is negligible. Even 2-way CrossFire/SLI is hardly popular.

 

If you can afford this board ($400+) and 3-4 cards (easily over $1000)... it's safe to assume you can afford a 30" display.

Yeah that's stupid...

 

Packing seven PCI-E slots on an ATX board is feasible... For example, look at the MSI 790FX-GD70, which can run quad-crossfireX with dual-slot cards, and is ATX. Clearly, there is room for seven PCI-E slots.

 

they need the space for dual slot coolers and longer cards? who knows xD

It's a small niche market. Most mainstream users aren't going to run out and buy 4 285s, 1500watt+ power supplies, and $500+ motherboards. Enabling 4 way SLI isn't going to "hit ATI" in any way. Selling a 285 for $150 would "hit ATI" where it really hurts-midrange pricies.

 

Lol yeah, most users will probably use only 1-2 gfx cards max. It's for the enthusiasts and stupid ppl like my friend who bought tri-sli board and 3 gtx260 just let to let it sit there and depreciate >_>...
