Technology analysis of the latest gadgets, consoles, and computer architectures.

So much for the notion that one graphics card is enough for your computer...Alienware is developing a motherboard that will use an Intel-based chipset to allow the use of dual graphics cards in a system. In particular, the two graphics cards will work in parallel, a technology being named Video Array, to "offer between 50 to 90 percent more performance than a single graphics card." Almost double the performance of the ATI X800 XT...mmm, 200+ fps without breaking a sweat. That's just crazy talk...

  3. If you keep waiting (like Chief continues to do), you'll never actually get around to building one ;) Technology moves too quickly; even well informed purchases may be obsolete in months. Moral of the story? Just do it. Nike.
