Motherboard maker EVGA is working on a board that really takes advantage of the GPGPU concept. EVGA X58 4-Way SLI Classified is a graphics card platform above the rest. The motherboard has no less than seven PCI-Express x16 slots, much like ASUS SuperComputer family. The motherboard most likely use two extra NVIDIA NF200 bridge chips to assist the X58 chipset in feeding the seven graphics cards with data.
The motherboard can house six DDR3-1600+ memory modules and up to nine SATA devices, leaving plenty of space for storage expansion possibilities.
The motherboard also ships with LED for troubleshooting, 10 phase digital power supply and plenty of overclocking features. But the motherboard is of course first of all for those who are looking to run extreme multi-GPU solution or perhaps even 4-way SLI configurations.
The price of EVGA's "graphics card motherboard" will be around $450, but we're not sure about the availability. Though the pretty high price shouldn't be a problem for those who can afford to fill the slots.
