Look at the motherboard overview. It supports 2 GPUs and 1 physics card. To my knowledge you cannot have more than 2 cards in sli. However, the new 8950GX2 will have 2GPU's on one card allowing for a total of 4GPU's.

Hmm, three cards in SLi is touted, but as AXT says the third card is reserved strictly for physics processing, not graphics. So while you probably could add a third, it may not make that much difference to your frame rate, in fact, adding physics processing may in fact lower it, as there's more for the other two cards to render.

No, with your board, you wont be able to run 3 cards. However, there are boards out there that have 4 PCI-e slots, and allow you to run quad sli or quad cross fire. I have seen pictures of people with 3 cards though, I think they're was one with 2 x1950xtx, and then there was a smaller card, probably a 1900, in the middle doing all the physics work.

what would you do with that much graphics power? Sounds like over-kill.

Not when you run the resolution I do (2560x1600), and to think I only run a single X1900XT.

It is not overkill since i have an 30 inch monitor with 2560x1600 resolution. Im hoping to play crisis at ultra high detail

Not at 2560x1600 you won't, what graphics cards do you run?
(Good choice on the monitor by the way!)

Rumour has it there'll be an 8900 series, then it'll go over to the Geforce 9. Either way it probably won't be enough of an upgrade form 8800 Ultras, so I'd stick with them until the 9000s.
