Pretty Old Info mate, in any case, four 7800GTXs are worthless, for starters, nVIDIA Doesn't support this, so forget about running four Graphic cards, in SLi. so who is going to buy this? designers! let's put it this way, each card has 3 connections, 2 DVI and 1 S-Video, 3 That's 2 Monitor and one TV for each card! now having four of those cards mean 12 Video outputs, can you really imagine a normal Pc user or gamer using 12 monitors? it's worthless unless nVIDIA supports these cards, there are not worth buying even if one has enough money, in this case, two 7800GTXs are best for me! :)

Why dint nobdy mentioned that you would also need dual 64 bit processor to support 4 7800GTXs and what about cooling you would need two air conditioners just to kool those cards! i think 4 7800GTXs is just too much i doubt if there will be that much of didfference in the graphic when you put four of them.

Nah man, the cards themselfs come with cooler which is more than enough, there won't be a diffrence. no SLi, no diffrence.

I know that XFX 6800 creates huge amount of heat you need three fans and still it gets real hot so going by this four 7800s is definitely going to get over heated.

i am afraid you're wrong mate, the stock coolers are MORE Than ENOUGH for graphics card to run properly without overclocking; the only real issue here would be extreme amount of noise, for a blind guess, i'd say above 200dB
