CUDA Question.

It won't work with SLi, but you can just use a board that has two PCI-e Slots.. then fold with them without needing SLi..

That's how the 4 9800GX2's were done on that 790FX Board

That's basically what I meant. You can run two cards but they won't run in SLI.

You have a source for the article zed?

The ATI gpu client runs off CAL, and the Nvidia gpu client runs off CUDA but not Physx. Nvidia cards have a built in physics processor, ATI cards dont. They simply run it through software, which makes it much slower (Havok Physics).

Even if they made a gpu client for ATI cards which runs off CUDA, i doubt it would be as fast due to how the shaders work between both cards.

ATI cards have more shaders, but the Nvidia shaders run faster which is why they fold faster.

The new projects change things a little bit, but Nvidia cards till come out in the lead.
