I have a single msi 660 oc twin frozr iii, in the foreseeable future I was thinking of getting another one so I can set them up in sli. Now the question I'm asking is will that be sufficient for playing most games on the future? I mainly play fps, bf3. Looking to be able to run bf4 on ultra once their requirements come out. Or should I dish out the big money for one single card? I have an i5-3570k and 8 gb ram. Also have a 144 hz monitor.

2 GTX 660 OC cards will be faster than just about any single card solution. I have 2 x EVGA GTX 570 SSCs in my main build and have not noticed any micro-stutter, so I would imagine it won't be a problem for you with 2 x GTX 660s which will be slightly faster. Maxing out the latest games will, of course, depend on the resolution of your monitor(s). At 1920x1080 or less, no problem.

Btw, I have that same MSI 660 card in my 2nd machine: FX-6300 @ 4.0GHZ, 8GB 1600MHZ, Asus M5A99X EVO. I just ordered a 2nd card for SLI. It should arrive from the Egg tomorrow. I should probably swap cards with my main machine.

I feel more comfortable now going forward with another 660. I have a 144 Hz monitor coming in soon, so I should be able to play most games with a frame rate higher than 60. I'd love to know how the two 660's run for you. Thanks.
