But is very good to know that in a future I can add one more GPU and have very good frames.

It is a quadSLI so all the cores are working in a SLI mode. It is like having 4 gtx580 in SLI but a little downgraded unfortunatly. Each core controls 1.5g of RAM.

I recomend if you you want to have a QSLI to by a hydrosystem to cool them so you could overclock them to real GTX580 or even more. I am thinking to do so in the near future.

Otherwise you will have real big noise from the fan system and you cannot of course overclock them as if you do, so you will probable burn the cards......

But be aware:
1. I have combined the cards with a i7 X980 and 12g of RAM. So the results that I am getting from the benchmarks and games are more than good, always in triple monitor setup.
2. I don't know you system specs so I suppose that you have one and you want to buy a second one. For my point of view do it only if you intend to play the game in a triple monitor. When you play a game in a single monitor even in a resolution 2560x1440 one card it is enough to do the job (even more than enough). QSLI in fulHD and hiRES resolutions has no big diference from a dualSLI
