I currently have a 9800GTX+ 512mb. Im planny on SLIing it soon and my quesiton is about the "new" 1go version.

Few games still dont works well with SLI, so i could use only the 1go version if i need to diseable my SLI and still be able to SLI those with games that works well. As far as i know, SLIing a 512m and a 1g is ok if its the same card.

The 512m version is cheaper ... advise plz ?

Im playing 1680x1050 and i love to have some eye candy ;)

Just buy the cheaper 512mb card, I personally don't think it be too wise of an investment to buy the 1gig version when you won't be taking full advantage of it all the time.

Or you can sell your current card and pick up something that you might like.
