I think you all must be struggling here.
The Radeon Pro Duo is only a mere $1500 and barely sips energy at a miniscule 350 watts, you really need to keep that in mind.
Here we have nVidia violating us with a board that is barely any faster, uses a STAGGERING 180 watts and costs an OBSCENE $599- how can you people be so confused.......?
On a more serious note- I absolutely understand why on a technical, competitive and financial basis nVidia is using this strategy, but I'm really not a fan of getting a x80 part based on a x04 GPU. Completely understand all of the utterly valid reasoning behind it, and I also totally get with how shockingly inept AMD is there is no reason to do it differently(they absolutely *could*, but it would hurt the margins pretty badly).
