GeCube Radeon HD 2600 X2 is a QuadFire Contender
Written by Mavke

Yesterday, we queried the appearance of the Radeon HD 2600 X2 card in ATI's latest drivers. Well, a few reader were quick enough to point out that it is, in fact, a dual-GPU chip which has recently appeared from GeCube. However, it now seems that other companies are jumping on the bandwagon, with Sapphire the latest to show off a dual Radeon HD2600 card. The Sapphire version is a funky blue, has 1GB of GDDR3 memory, runs at 800/1600MHz core and memory and sports four DVI ports. The card itself is absolutely huge, we're talking old-school mainframe size here. In fact, we suspect that many folks will not even be able to fit it in their systems. - The Inquirer

Interestingly, despite sporting what is effectively CrossFire on board, the card also has an internal CrossFire bridge connector on the top edge. What's the chances of raking two of these together do you think? The final answer to QuadFire? There are already some benchmarks out, which appear to prove that the card, at least, does work. Interestingly enough, the latest ATI driver release seems to suggest that the Radeon HD 2600 X2 will work under Vista. Why, then, can't NVIDIA pick up its game and get the GeForce 7950 GX2 working?
