Found a second 650 TI Boost exact same as mine gigabyte 2gb. I was wondering if it was worth it to spend the 120 for it? or are there better cards than the 650 ti in SLI for about the same money?
 
Solution
It's recommended to always spend in a stronger card rather than adding a 2nd one to do SLI/Crossfire. The performance increase with 2-way SLI/Crossfire is not always the same (up to 70% more, 50% average) and sometimes you may loose performance. The driver needs to have a SLI profile for the game you want to play, if there's no profile the game will use only 1 GPU.
