I was wondering, is the single ATI card better than 4 7300GTs? I know that NVIDIA offers much better cards than this but it doesn't seem like they are available for the Macs right now, unless of course you can get any cards but I thought you couldn't.
S anyway, what setup do you guys believe is better?

If you want to hook up a shitload of monitors, four 7300GTs is better. If you want more graphics power, the x1900XT is better.

For some reason this makes me think of the "quad laser" from Aqua Teen Hunger Force.
Seriously, if you aren't using a lot of external monitors, I can't think of a single reason why you would want 4 identical video cards.

I suspect the original poster is asking if four 7300GTs in SLI mode are better than a single X1900XT performance-wise.
I rather doubt it, but it doesn't matter because Apple doesn't support SLI at this time. Today, using multiple video cards in a Mac is for driving lots of monitors.
