Sabertooth X58 and Quad-GPU SLI

[timothyh]

Hey Guys,

In the specs for the ASUS Sabertooth X58 it says that the mobo "Supports NVIDIA Quad-GPU SLI Technology" Now the board has 2 x PCIe 2.0 x 16 slots and 1 PCIe x 16 (at x 4 mode) slot, so they can't be talking about 4 x single GPU cards. So, does this mean two dual GPU cards like GTX295 in SLI? Also, is it possible to do 3-way SLI with the PCI slots on this board?

you can get a pci riser which includes 4 slots for gpus im guessing its that? not overly sure lol

or for those graphics cards that have 2 gpus in 1 then you could potentionally have 4 gpus such as the gtx 9800 GX2

been googling riser cards - never knew about them before - amazing variety of possibilities!
