i personally think sli is rip off. its rarely 2x performance. i believe its only best to use it if u have the fastest single gpu and need more performance. ie 8800gtx sli, 8800 ultra sli, 9800gtx tri sli, 9800gx quad sli. honestly, an 8800gt will pwn any game u have, i run crysis on directx9 for a couple extra frame rates with everything on high except post processing which is on medium, no AA, probably trilinear filtering seeing as AF isnt in the game, u have to force in nvidia control panel, at 1680 by 1050. its 100% fluid throughout the whole crysis demo. i have latest drivers which improves fps even more then the last i had which was a beta. besides. if ud like to sli, with an 8800gt u could after u feel u need more performance. if u get another 7900gs which is a bad idea, waste of money. then ur out of sli slots.
