Official system requirements

I don't understand the question about multi GPUs.

Of course they are supported! How can they be not?

Whether they offer any performance advantage is a different question, to which I don't have an answer at this time.

All coding required by a developer to support multi GPU:s should be as weird as producing code that has "raid disk support" It's the work of the hardware manufacturers to deliver drivers that abstracts that without required additional coding, as opposed to multiple CPU:s. But I guess Intel and the companies delivering compilers puts as much thought into abstracting the multi core CPU layer as the nuclear scientists put into cold fusion as it would truly be the future

Woah. Can anyone translate?!

A word of warning for anyone currently thinking about getting a Sandybridge CPU, Intel have announced a recall due to a faulty support chip, called Cougar Point. This affects the running of sata dvd drives and hard disk , they are addressing the issue and new motherboards will be annouced soon.

Thats the whole point if there is no performance advantage why would anyone use it?But thanks for your answer,I appreciate it.

Probably people going for the multi-monitor route.

Thats a big waste of performance and more if you are running at resolutions higher than 1920x1080 such as those from more than one monitor setups.

I think he was getting at there being no performance increase when you have a single monitor setup at a reasonable resolution, as opposed to a dual monitor setup and huge resolution.

This is what I'm guessing (reaching at) from his comment and common sense (I hope). If there is no performance increase when doing more than one monitor or huge resolutions then they must have really done something wrong when coding this mother.

I dont think he was referring to multi-monitor setups at all.Only multi-gpu performance(sli and crossfire)sort of answering my question but not completely.We'll just have to wait, I hope the game would benefit from 2 gpus otherwise Ill be very sad.
