AMD launches the Spider Platform - with up to 4 graphics cards
AMD has launched a new PC Gaming Platform, called the Spider Platform.
Spider combines AMD’s new Phenom Quad Core processors, and up to four (yes four) ATI Radeon HD 3800 cards, with CrossFireX, HyperTransport 3.0, AMD OverDrive, AMD AutoXpres, whic is supposed to provide amazing 3D graphics.
AMD is the only company committed to delivering The Ultimate Visual Experience across all the screens of your life,” said Dirk Meyer, president and COO, AMD. “The AMD Spider platform embodies our approach to platform-level innovation and delivers a highly-advanced, feature-rich enthusiast computing experience. Our commitment to energy-efficient design and manufacturing excellence drives an unprecedented performance-per-watt at an amazing price point, putting enthusiast-class platforms in reach for more users than ever before.”
AMD’s Spider platform advances enthusiast computing by delivering the most sophisticated multi-GPU enthusiast platform ever with ATI CrossFireX technology. The combination of the energy-efficient 55nm ATI Radeon HD 3800 Series of graphics processors and the increased system bandwidth of PCI Express® Generation 2.0 and HyperTransport™ 3.0 technology, provide optimal processing power for a scalable HD multi-GPU experience. AMD design and manufacturing innovation has enabled the AMD Spider platform to easily scale to three or four graphics processors and deliver a true gaming supercomputer.
It will be interesting to see how the new platform performs, but four GFX cards at probably a couple of hundred dollars a pop isn’t going to be cheap.
