I have a XPS720 with all the bells n whistles. Have 1 Nvidia 8800 GT, would it be wise to add another and go SLI ? Also would a XFX SLI bridge strap work ? Have 4 Gig Ram, 750W power supply and 28" monitor. Usuall run games at 1600x1200 res. Everything runs good I just want a little more bang.

I run 8800GT's in SLi @ 1920x1080 and am and am happy to report that they perform really well, so I would have to say 'yes' if you can find another one then do it as they will hold you over until the DX11 cards get sorted out.

Well for some stupid reason the SLI didnt work. Second 8800 GT was real noisy and ran hot so I sent it back for full refund and ended up getting a GTX 260 OC and everything is hunky dorey now. Thanks for your replies. :hello:
