Review Round-up: NVIDIA 3-way SLI, Wii Boom Blox, 80GB Zune

Topic:

This week we tested a cool NVIDIA 3-way SLI setup with a trio of the NVIDIA 9800 GTX video cards.

Shane's verdict: "In the end with the choice between Quad SLI and 3-way SLI I would go 3-Way. The performance is very good and the only real tradeoffs are the loss of an additional pair of expansion slots and the need for a higher power PSU. NVIDIA’s 3-way SLI is one heck of an upgrade path for gamers who start with one 9800 GTX and move to SLI and later 3-Way. " Read more
