Did you notice that the graphics stuff with Crysis didn't last too long though. I don't think they were fitting any SLI into their budget.

They had to disconnect the cards because they were robbing power from the PCI-E bridge. Once they disconnected the cards the PCI-E RAID controller got more power and the bandwidth increased.
