The HYDRA deployment options are:

* On a desktop or notebook motherboard, connected to a standard PCIe port between the CPU subsystem and the multiple graphics add-in boards or MXM modules.
* On an add-in board, enabling up to four GPUs by any one vendor, creating a new price-performance-power AiB that can be plugged into a single slot on any motherboard.
* In an external pod designed to provide top-performance graphics for gamers, or, when connected to a laptop or docking station allowing people to leverage advanced graphics performance when they want.

Could make for some interesting benchmarks. Wonder how they will get past the latency issues but hopefully next month we can see.

There are enough issues with two identical cards!!!
Can you imagine the blame game between the three companies for artefacts.

Could be useful if it allows you to choose one for graphics and one for physics.

As with countries, these invisible borders should be removed and we should all work and live as one. I can see nVIDIA and ATi dancing around in a field and making daisy chains together, maybe they should be called ATVIDIA or.. ni.

They could be the Knights of ni?
