A funny thing happened after our Radeon HD 3870 X2 review. I almost immediately transitioned over to working on our review of Skulltrail, Intel's eight-core monstrosity that we overclocked to 4GHz. Still woozy from Skulltrail's exhaust fumes, I then decided to turn my attention to yet another ridiculously expensive and powerful gizmo: three-way SLI.
