Yes, something like that, there will be a high-bandwidth connection of some sort between the box and the host-machine. There's already talk of Intel using the Hydra engine on its next-gen Skulltrail motherboard that hypothetically lets you use any combination of video-cards.

Fiber optics maybe? Sounds like you would need a connection with plenty of bandwidth.

Looks intriguing.

i wonder how much gpu power is needed for one of this real-time MRI rendering computers. I bet something like this could truly increase image clarity.

Next generation Tesla HPC.

On this board, you can go ahead and pair four GTX 295 cards, four HD 4870 X2 cards, pretty-much any combination of PCI-Express graphics cards. No SLI/CFX cables needed, graphics processing remains abstract to the application.

They obviously are not GTX295's. They don't have video outputs.

I meant tesla cards based on the gtx295

Still its a bit wierd that it only needs one power connector.

Quadro CS, another card based on the G200b, needs only a single 6-pin connector.

Yes, depending on the cumulative power of all member graphics cards, whatever you throw at it.

I'm going to take an educated guess as estimate that a setup like the one pictured would cost 5-25,000 dollars? A little overkill for crysis, besides crysis is old news.

Looks like a standard PCI-E cable port on that board.
