It seems that Gigabyte is not the only one with a DUAL GPU based graphics card based on the GeForce 6600. ASUSTeK Computer decided to introduce a competing solution with two GPUs onboard also. Taiwanese Digital-Info.Net posted intriguing photos of a sample named EN6600GT Dual. Though this card is based on the same GeForce 6600GT GPUs, itīs totally different from GIGABYTE GV-3D1 which makes you wonder if there even exists an NVIDIA reference design. EN6600GT Dual has two DVI-I interfaces, 9-pin S-Video that also supports video capture (with Philips SAA7114H chip).
On the cardīs PCB thereīs also 6-pin power connector, 256MB of 256-bit 1.6ns GDDR3 memory from Samsung similar to that installed on GV-3D1 (8 x K4J55323QF-GC16 chips). It seems that GPUs share PCI Express evenly, each using 8 x PCI-E channels. Perhaps, GPUs are interconnected with SLI (Scalable Link Interface) that has the switch integrated into the PCB circuits. Both digit-life and ourselves start to wonder if it is possible to install 2 x EN6600GT Dual card to get yourself a whole 4 GPUs? Perhaps, it is, because the novelty from ASUS has two 14-pin connectors, one in the place of SLI interface, so if you take a couple of cables. This can be done by DFI nForce 4 based series, for example. But, of course, if GeForce 6600GT supports multi-GPU modes, ASUSTeK is bound to release a new board to handle two EN6600GT Dual cards at once.
