A GeForce 7950 GX2 card still costs around € 500 plus, but on August the 9th Nvidia has officially release a new driver that supports a Quad SLI configuration, along with the list of verified motherboards and accompanied with an extensive do-it-yourself guide. This should allow users to complete their custom build Quad SLI systems or buy another 7950GX2 card.

Until now Nvidia's Quad SLI was supported only through OEM system builders, but Nvidia has managed to optimize its drivers and release an official set. Quad SLI should work on both, AMD and Intel platforms, on any SLI motherboard - even CrossFire ones - with the basic requirement, that it has two PCIe x16 slots. A Quad SLI setup will require a very powerful PSU though, as the minimum stated is 700 Watts.

Quad SLI allows 32x anti-aliasing, the maximum level possible today, and offers in supported games the world's fastest performance in any given resolution.
