weird issues like that sometimes make you wonder what the designers were thinking.

they're already trying to appeal somewhat to gamers. so why make a design that limits performance?

i'm glad they finally found it in their heart to eliminate that crap. but it's not like it makes a difference for most because 90% of users aren't going to go sli because the benefits are outweighed by the specifics need to obtain them. a monitor that supports high resolutions, 2 of the same moderately expensive card, a motherboard to hold them and run them both at 16x, cooling good enough to keep them from exploding, a beast of a power supply...too costly for minimal gains.

that's why i won't be going SLI Costs to much and I only have a 19" and a 17" monitor (a little strange having 2 different sized monitors for a duel monitor set up, but I have got used to it) and if i did go SLI, I would need an 800W PSU atleast, and the one I will be getting for my new build will only be 620W and costs enough with the rest of my build. Can't afford to spend £100+ on a PSU
