It's not exactly 2x the speed of one and it can cause more heat and more stress on the motherboard.

wow the vf900 works with this. That's one of the best things i've heard in a while. Those load temps are a bit too much for my tastes.

IMO, I think Nvidia will change prices so that 2 x 8800GT will cost more than 1 x 8800GTX - by either reducing the price of the GTX, setting the price of the 8800GT's higher than speculated, or both.

check the mounting holes



i am not to familiar to water cooling, but the article did say that "it is compatible with any heatsink that the NVIDIA GeForce 7900/7800(not7800GS)/7600/6800 uses (three directional heatsink)."

dont know if it helps
