I'm looking to upgrade my graphics card and trying to decide between a second 8800GTS 640 MB for SLI (G80 with 96 stream processors) and a new GPU. My budget is 200 pounds.
Not sure what will help and what wont so here is what I have:
ASUS P5 N32-E SLI (SLI capable with 2* 16 PCI-e)
Q6600 (G0)
Ocz 700W Game X Stream (single rail so SLI and most GPU's should be ok)
4 Gb PC6400 RAM
Vista 64 Ultimate
I'm looking to play current demanding games (eg Crysis) and upcoming games at full detail at 1680*1050 with good framerates.
Any help/advice (preferably with links) would be appreciated. SLI seems to be the cheaper option but am I going to get much of an improvement (I've heard from 15% to 100% improvements??) or is it better to just go for a new card?
