I don't think dual core lends itself that well to GPU architecture since graphics processing is almost infinitely parallel anyway, so GPUs can just have as many rendering pipelines as they can cram into the chip and still have them scale extremely well. There's no point in dual core if you can put it in a single core.

Well, they don't seem to have a single core that hosts 40 pipelines...on top of that, if you were to compare 2 CPUs (as in 2 Opterons) versus a dual core proc, I know you will find it uses less power...

I imagine the same would be true with GPUs, and less power means less heat. Drop the power requirments, you won't need external power bricks, or massive PSUs. Drop the heat, you won't need massive heatsinks...plus, having a single dual core GPU would be better, because you wouldn't need a overly large heatsink to cover 2 GPUs.

WOW!!!

can you imagine if they can get the QUAD-SLi board to work with 4 of these dual-GPU cards???

8 x 7800GT = 8 x 20pipes = 160 pipelines

OMG, i need to change my undies...
