SLI Naming Conventions

[Norman_the_Owl]

Would having two Titan Z's (Humor me here) in one system be SLI titan Z's or Quad Titan Z's?

Because correct me if i'm wrong, you'd call two Titan Z's Quad SLI, or Dual Titan Z's

 

Which way is correct, or, if neither is correct, what would be correct?

 

Also, this is what I'm trying to disprove, just for reference.

"No, quad Titan Z means 2 Titan Zs, as each card has two GPUs; 2x2=4.
There's a difference between quad SLI and 4-way SLI"

Titan Z SLI, there can be no confusion if you say Titan Z SLI as there is only one way to configure it.

 

Could also be referred to as Quad SLI when the context of conversation is the number of GPUs in your setup not the specific chips.

So saying Quad Titan Z's means four Titan Z's, which is impossible, correct?

are you arguing with cokeman? 

 

id say dual titanZ. because if you have one, you will never say you have a dual Titan Z setup.

 

and quad = 4 so quadsli = 4way sli.

 

@Askew you are a bad teacher

Impossible to use 4 Titan Z in SLI yes.

[LukaP]

So saying Quad Titan Z's means four Titan Z's, which is impossible, correct?

its possible. but you wont sli them. you can still use them for rendering and calculations

[Archangel1994]

So saying Quad Titan Z's means four Titan Z's, which is impossible, correct?

Correct. The best way to say it is just Titan Z SLI since Titan Z only has 1 SLI config, 2-way external SLI Titan Z or just 2 Titan Z's in SLI.

@Askew you are a bad teacher

Oh god...please tell me @Norman_the_Owl isn't Cokeman.

Oh god...please tell me @Norman_the_Owl isn't Cokeman.

Is my advice really that bad?

No, he started a thread like this "correcting" Linus on his use of the terms you're asking about. Spawned a massive flamewar, believe it or not. Over SLI naming conventions no less.

norman seems ok. the guy he is arguing with...

Oh no, there was just an idiot somewhere who was insisting Quad Titan Z's meant having two Titan Z's in the same system
