Okay, here's the deal, I currently have one 8800 GTS 640 SSC I picked up last January. It works well for all of my games (Company of Heroes, Supreme Commander, COD4, Oblivion, etc) at 1440x900 on Very High settings.
I want to be able to game on my LCD TV at 1920x1080, should I just pick up another 8800 GTS 640 or should I spend some time trying to sell the 8800 GTS 640 and then pick up two 8800 GTS 512s? Will the difference really be that much between the two SLI configurations at high resolutions (not including Crysis)?
This is the GTS 640 model I purchased last year: http://www.newegg.com/product/product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130080
This is the GTS 640 model I was thinking about getting: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130317
They are both G80, but my discontinued model only has 96 stream processors while the new one has 112. Will they still be SLI compatible if I go that route? Either way they'll be paired with a Q6600 at 3GHz on an ASUS P5N32-E SLI 680i board.
Thanks in advance for the advice!
