Both SLI and Crossfire are software-based. Both AMD and Nvidia are just trying to promote their chipsets by limiting it/licensing. I’m not going to fall to their hands, and I don’t want to use shitty chipsets. Crossfire is working officially on Intel’s chipsets already, and I hope AMD will unlock Crossfire for everyone. I hope someone will sue Nvidia and make them offer SLI for everyone. Both firms should unlock it since it can double their sales.

if they do that 90% of sold chipsets would be intel chipsets (maybe because of higher bandwidth and rest)

not really maybe because phsx card is taking most of psychics stress from cpu and gpus so system will run faster "i think"

maybe the new pci express physx cards will be better at avoiding bottlenecks - will that probably be down to the software tho..?

Blackbird does look really cool, you don't even have to ask tho, just by looking at it you know you will have to auction off both your thumbs and your liver on ebay to even think of buying one..

AGEIA PhysX™ 100 Series PCI-E GFX Accelerator Card
well i dont think it will cripple a performance of pc maybe because this model is on PCIE (much higher bandwidth than on regular pci )
