Id be suprised if they tried to market it, that wouldn't fit in the majority of pc cases.

eek:

Why would you needa a quad cpu mainboard for an sli setup? Not like it'll drive the graphics cards any faster unless a games coded to take advantage of dual cpu's or whatever one will just sit there doing nothing.

As for gaming, dual\quad cpu boards are usually intended for servers so they usually dont have a lot of overclocking options, some do but a lot don't.

The main reason that dual/quad CPUs aren't used for gaming is because they don't do anything. No games take advantage of dual cpus (or hyperthreading). So it's a massive waste of money if you are just using it for gaming.
