I know a lot of people who will never use a second card, myself included, because there is no practical benefit from it given the issues that linger with those setups. So it'd be damn hard to hit the efficiency sweat spot on such a high powered unit. I can't believe we get 500 watt and 1300 watt platinum units before the ones people actually want to buy, the 650-850 units.
