Thanks for the news. I've been holding off on upgrading in anticipation of this. Now if we can only see the benchmarks; 2 AMD 5870's CF vs Hydra 200 .

This sounds a promising way of integrating any mixture of cards so as to get the high performance of the ATI HD4890 cards in CFX, combined with the superior Physx technology of the nVidia cards.

Looking forward to seeing some performance test results.
