...However, Alienware said the quad-SLI technology would also be sold as part of its Area-51 7500 and Aurora 7500 systems.
Nvidia said this week that it plans to make its quad-SLI technology available to OEMs and systems builders via its new nForce chipsets, the nForce 500 series, which it launched at the CeBIT show in Hannover, Germany.
Alienware also answered one previously unanswered question ? the power supply needed to drive the four GPUs. Alienware specs out the ALX with an 850-watt power supply, a whopping number compared to the more common 400 and 500-watt power supplies used to power most PCs, but somewhat short of the rumored kilowatt requirements for a full quad-SLI system.
