I have two 9800's gtx+ running SLI. When I first connected the 2 cards SLI, it ran awesome. But since then, in game it has froze up on me about 3 or 4 times. So I restarted it and it would come up with a black screen. I would then have to shut it down and restart it again. Then it would run fine. Also, I ran 3dMark advantage Benchmarks it also would freeze up. I would have to do the same process all over again, restart=black screen, shut it down and restart and then it works fine. All of this has happen about 5 to 6 times now since I installed SLI. I have tried to look for answers online, with no luck. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Also, is it really worth it to run SLI? I looked at benchmarks for the 9800gtx+ Sli against other SLI GPU's and single GPU's. I have found that running these cards SLI puts then right up there with other SLi cards and single GPU's. But so far running SLI has had some freeze up's. So my question is, should I run SLI or a single GPU?
Here are to links to show benchmarks.
