To Mad Mod Mike,

I have received a ton of questions about Quad SLI. Quad SLI PCs are currently available from the leading System Builders and OEMs (see my list below). However, if you are a do-it-yourselfer and are dieing to build yourself a Quad SLI PC, here is what you need to know:

1. You will need two SLI-Ready dual-NVIDIA GPU powered graphics cards (not yet launched). Each of these cards contains two GPUs and fits into one PCI-Express slot on your NVIDIA nForce4 SLI motherboard. Therefore, two of these dual-GPU cards will only require two PCI-Express slots!
2. You will need an NVIDIA nForce4 SLI motherboard (a dual x8/x8 or a dual x16/16). I recommend the nForce4 SLI X16 chipset (dual x16/x16) for Quad SLI as it will provide better performance.
3. You will need an adequate power supply. Details will be revealed when NVIDIA launches this new dual-GPU graphics card.
