8 way SLI

WOAH
made just some calculating
wikipedia says: planned clocks for rampage= 200-250MHz
so 4pxl/clk *250 000Hz=1 000 000 pixel/s
for one Chip!
so fill rate with 8 way sli = 8Gpixel/s !!!!
wich is more than this mine Radeon 9800pro(128Mb)(3Gpxl/s)
That would have been one helluva card in year 2001 Shocked

but must have been cost a lot. like $800 Undecided

EDIT:
@ EXXE
have you tried does that arcade voodoo 3 works on PC or would it broke the card?

I think it has no bios as none is required for the arcade hardware.
