You might have 400+ horses in that motor but you're never using all 400+ horses.

Oh wow!... I had to go back and watch to be sure... bf4 lets you use your tablet as your map and commanding device.. use it to call airstrikes and whatnot. Simply awesome!!!!! Take my money!
but in all seriousness will you be able to use the tablet for MP also, or is it just for the campaign? I haven't watched the trailer yet but I'm check it out now.

From what I've read, the use of the tablet is kinda like a class, therefore if you use the tablet, that's all you can do, you can't be sniping or whatever and use the tablet at the same time.
Pretty much it's something the GF/wife can do but won't really affect your team.

I built an sli setup in my most recent build and I haven't been able to get too much micro-stuttering. I stuck 4 680 classifieds together on a rampage IV extreme just to see what it would do, and the numbers were practically criminal. I ran a couple of demanding games on it for about an hour or so maxed out, no stuttering whatsoever. I pulled two of them off and ran two of them in a pair and got the same result, though frame rates dropped with a couple of the more demanding games at max settings (some tweaking can probably remove even that little bit of slow-down). I ran them on an i7-3930k with 16 GB of GSkill Ares 1866 Quad-channel and of course the classifieds have 4GB of their own memory--plenty to handle pretty much anything out these days. Two 670s should do just fine.

The build with the two 680's is one I sold to a friend of mine. I built it for him, though I imagine he'll be able to do far more with it than I would have. He's a huge gamer and loves overclocking stuff. He wants to use 64GB of Quad-channel memory on the **** thing. I asked him why he needed the equivalent of the Pacific ocean's worth of memory, and he said it was "future-proofing" for the next 5-6 years. Seems like a waste of money to me, but it's his money. I took the other two off and am going to use them in another build for someone else.
I did take a picture of the computer running with all four cards in at once...I'll see if I can find it.
