8800gtx sli configuration

[Omnilogic]

The card has 2 sli bridge slots on it or so it seems, do both of those need to be connected to one another using 2 bridges to each of the cards or just one?

Just One Sli Bridge connected between the two cards.

Could http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817121012 support sli with 2 8800 gtxs?

No.

You need something like this to power two 8800gtx in sli. You need around 54amps to run two of them.

I would stay away from Cooler Master. Stick with PC Power & Cooling, Silverstone, TT Toughpower, Enermax these are well know brands with top notch quality and stability.

Check this site. Stick with Tier 1 and Tier 2 brands.
