In order to plug 2 SLI cards to each other and have them running together simultaneously, do I need to have 2 pci express 16 slots I think my motherboard only has 1 cause Im using it now and I don't think theres another, I don't know will I have to buy a new motherboard to?

No, your Hewlett Packard isn't designed to support SLI

IF your board does not have two open slots then yes you will have to get a new mobo.

hey crashman will his HP with a 600W PSU, support a 8800GTX? Just curious because I also have a HP HTPC.

Probably, so long as he has the room and the power supply has the quality and the connectors.

The big thing is the length of the card, it's as long as the width of the motherboard. If there are any drives, etc hanging over the edge of the board, the long card won't fit.
