if anyone doesnt get it there is a option in the advance search for newegg and it was available in a section that was only ati made graphics cards when nvidia is the one who uses SLI
ati uses crossfire


kinda funny thought u guys might wanna see it

you didn't hit "search", did you?


Besides, it would take a lot of stupidity to lower newegg from "brilliant" to "great".

i hit search after i realized it said sli supported only because i wanted to see if it showed an ati or nvidia card


turns out it actually says sli supported on the card in questions page
here link (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814129100) check out the headline for the card

I think they just include both under SLI for either stupid people or to just have SLI/Crossfire under one option. It would be odd to do a search for SLI and Crossfire capable cards. Heh heh heh.

The sad thing is that there are people who think that talking and spelling like that is cool.

I think it is just an ease of filing type of situation, I don't think it is a stupidity thing. Gotta love when people throw out things just to point the finger at people and say he/she/it/they are dumb. Even if it was a "stupid" mistake I don't really see the big deal about it, but thats just me.

Ehh.

I love how Newegg just got dumber for mistaking the name of one chipset when everything else they do is incredible.

For example, they lost my order and had to resend it. Instead of doing ground shipping, they bumped it up to overnight so I would get it when it was supposed to show up. Thats called taking a hit and doing whats right for the customer.

But yeah, thats funny. :P

What's even sadder is there are other people who don't know any better.

See, now that was kind of cool. The kind of "elite" speak that annoys me is the painfully obvious "I'm tu lzy tu typ ths out" ...okay, I'm really bad at leet speak, but you get my point. Reserve it for your cell phone txt messaging, at least then I can understand why people do it. For me, it saves me money. Since I can fit two txt messages in one, sometimes more if I think creatively. :p

The kind of "Leet Speak" that takes more than five brain cells to write/type and even more brain cells to read is pretty cool in my opinion. Except that really hard kind that looks like a bunch of random banging on the keyboard, I hate that kind! I can't make sense of it! lol

There's a motherboard coming out that supports both...I can't remember what it's called though. Read about it in Custom PC.

This reminds me of the Ageia Radeon HD 3870 that I saw not too long ago. Honestly though if they had a whole assload of errors like that I still would call them dumb. I love my newegg.
