I’m Seeing Double: Two GeForce 7800 GTX’s Inside

Are you kidding me—let’s talk Video cards and why I have no money for a cheeseburger. I may not get the top of the line processor, but I always get the top of the line Video card. You know, almost every new computer you buy at retail skimps on a first-class GPU (Graphics Processing Unit). Not with Alienware! They only serve the best, and I went for the top of the line Dual GeForce nVidia 7800 GTX’s with 512MB each (in SLI mode) for a combined over 1 Gig of video RAM.



SLI (Scalable Link Interface) delivers up to 2x the performance of a single GPU configuration for mind bending gaming experiences—it allows two graphics cards to run in parallel. Just some quick facts on these 7800 GTX please: Twice the performance of the GeForce 6800 Ultra, the 7800 GTX also uses a revolutionary new architecture with 2nd generation Nvidia SLI technology, has 302 million transistors, and will set you back a cool $600 a pop! Can you say advanced 16x anisotropic filtering kids?
