SLI'ing two GeForce 9800GX2's is retarded, as it yeilds power inferior to current 200-series GPUs, at a higher cost, and will eat up another PCI-e slot, not to mention the massive space these GPUs take up. But two i7's humming together... quite appealing. Useless, but appealing.

Not that I don't want one...

But if we're going by these rumors, we could possibly have 4 EXTRA PCIe slots in addition to the GPU slots. How cool would that be for us HD users!
