Yay now I can finally add those other 3 R9 290x Lightning's to my rig.

Interesting product, but also not really a new concept. I mean heck its already semi-common to use one PSU on its own to run multiple GPUs if you have 2 small PSUs and don't or can't afford a big one. Is this a better implementation? Absolutely.

with the right tower you LITERALLY could run two PC's in the same tower lmao fucking amazing [editline]13th April 2016[/editline] I hope that cross PC HDD's are a thing this way both PC's use the same HDD for something

Honestly having two computers in one case would be ideal for me. I could run my home computer and server in one.

[media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXOaCkbt4lI[/media] They had to settle for R9 Nanos because it was the best card at a low power draw, and no single PSU could supply power to 7 larger GPUs. I wonder what they could've done if they had access to this.

I've used it across a windows, Linux, and OSX machine at once on a complex and busy network and it was butter.

[QUOTE=Levelog;50127066]An SSD SANS on a 10gb network would be beautiful.[/QUOTE] Most software based network storage solutions support some sort of SSD caching, which basically gives you ssd performance for almost all writes, and ssd performance for any parts of the array that are accessed often. And 10 gig is still expensive, but its starting to get cost effective enough that it isnt too far out of the realm of feasibility for enthusiasts :v:
