Can you return the card and trade up to an 8800GTS 320MB perhaps?

A 8600GT is comparable with a 7600GT while the 8600GTS is neck and neck with a 7900GS.

So a 7900GT will definetly give u a preformance boost.

A 8600GT is SLI probably wont even get u to 7900GT performance.

or you could go for mousemonkeys suggestion where u can just sell of both the 8600GT and the 7900GT and u got enough cash for even a 8800GTS 640 maybe..
