I hope Nvidia fixes SLI in g80 before releasing this card.

what I found most interesting was the name. 8950 GX2 was surprising. It could be the result of a mentally handicapped INQ author (my first guess) believing that all GX2 parts must end in 950 (ie. 7850 GX2), despite the fact that we have no 8950 parts or even 8900 parts for that matter. this heatsink could just be for the old 7950 GX2- it appears they are making a big deal out of nothing. On the off chance the INQ is right, however, then this could mean 8900 is around the corner.
