Today is the official launch of NVIDIA’s Quad SLI. While one could previously run dual 9800GX2’s before this, the dual card solution wasn’t working appropriately until today’s release of the official QuadSLI driver.

Head over to the NVIDIA website to scoop out these new .ini files which are marked 174.53 and are WHQL certified to boot. These new digs also bring PureVideo HD features for GeForce 9800 GX2:

  • Dynamic Contrast Enhancement
  • Dynamic Blue, Green & Skin Tone Enhancements
  • Dual-Stream Decode Acceleration

Of course with new drivers comes new reviews. It seems QuadSLI is a mixed bag right now with reviews all over the place. Some are positive, negative, good, and bad. Make of them what you will, but regardless using such a set of cards is going to set you back $1100-1200 dollars easy.

If you ask me that kind of performance does not seem worth it. What games don’t run all that well with end single card solutions? Crysis you say? Well even Crysis, the massive elephant in the room, doesn’t run well with AA enabled under QuadSLI.
