The GeForce 8800GTX is longer than a Radeon X1950XTX and most other cards on the market. In fact it is 11" long tip to tail. The 8800GTS and other cards on the market are only 9.5" long.
As a comparison with the benchmarks we have produced throughout the entire 2006 calendar year, we ran our initial tests on an AMD Athlon FX-60 based system. We will have subsequent results showing multi-GPU performance. Additionally, we want to show what these new cards can do when the CPU limitations are lifted when testing under low resolution and image quality. (Stay tuned for that...)
