None-the-less one he keeps referring to.:toast:

Because all this has been originated there, that's why I refer to that site :laugh:. You know how to read? Then follow the link in the OP and look at the source of that article on the top...

Oh... :eek:

since people love linking to the wrong article...


http://www.pcper.com/article.php?aid=815

Yeah apparently Demerjian doesn't even know how to make a proper link and linked to a GTX260 review instead of this one. :laugh: I noticed that when I followed infernox's link, but I managed to find the good one. It doesn't show anything that the Techreport article I linked before didn't show. When it works it works more or less well. Mix and match doesn't perform even close to SLI/Crossfire on a SLI/Crossfire board and that shows that at the time of writing those previews the technology is not ready for launch, but it does look promising.

Both articles mention that Lucid only had few games for testing and that doesn't look like a good sign though.

All in all this is just like any other new technology, it's promising, but it has a long way to go yet.
