Anyone know if you have to be running SLI to use the third slot on the 680i boards for physics? I know the physics stuff isn't out yet, but I've got a 8800gts on order and managed to get ahold of an old 6800 I'm hoping I could use for physics when/if it comes out that way. Don't really wanna go SLI....expensive and don't really need it.
 
You do not need SLI to run a physics card. With all these new dual, quad, and Oct cores that are out and scheduled to come out in the near future I'm not so sure physics cards are even going to be necessary. Some feel that with more and more core procs that one of the multi cores on the chip will be able to do the job and negate the need for a seperate physics card. Personally, I'm hoping this is true. I dont want to have to add another card to my PC.
