    Anyone here familiar with Nvidia Tesla C2070?

    I was watching a video review of 3-way gtx580 sli on youtube, and someone left a very interesting comment, he suggests if someone rich enough to build a gaming pc with 3 gtx580, should probably choose this Tesla Card instead. It consumes no more power and generates no more heat than ONE gtx 580 but delivers more graphics power than 3x580 together!

    Too bad there is very limited information online about this beast, and seems like no one is using it for personal gamings...

    So if someone can afford this for PC (amazon price marked $3700) , is it really capable for normal gaming? there is no HDMI out, no VGA out, only one DVI-I dual link port. It would be very interesting to see some crysis 1 gaming video on this thing. :rolleyes:

    Ok, I know this is nothing to do with ASUS notebook, just can't resist sharing it because if Nvidia use this technology on future mobile graphic cards, that would be a whole new era for gaming notebooks. eg Tesla version gtx460M will take desktop gtx580 like a piece of cake :D (also probably +$1500 on original G73)

    It doesn't output to video, it's key purpose is running simulations for supercomputers.
