Week in Reviews

Overall a fairly large week in terms of reviews posted on the Net. Probably the biggest news in hardware was preliminary tests by a number of sites of the new NVIDIA Quad SLI configurations. While these are quite impressive, I just don't see how many people would be willing to pay so much for the required hardware to run these setups.

Next week is E3, so there will likely be much fewer reviews. On the plus side, we could potentially see some new product announcements.
