560 Ti now. SLI later or 580+?

[klaykid]

I am getting a 560 Ti now. I have it ordered and everything. I bought a SLI mobo and PSU, thinking about getting a second one later (when I get another 200 dollars). That is, if I need to.

But a second would cost another 200 dollars or more. That could get me a gtx 580 or even a 590 if it drops enough.

Seeing as I have the SLI capable stuff, should I just continue with the SLI?

two 560Ti's in SLI will smash all the latest games

The additional cost of the GTX 560 ti will be much less than a GTX 580, go with SLI.

What psu did you buy ?

Might be worth considering something in the middle? GTX 570 maybe.

If your looking for a long term build, it will work out cheaper in the long run to buy a single GTX 580 now and then go SLI later down the line than it would buying 2 GTX 560's now, and then having to replace the whole lot much sooner then if you had 580's to begin with.

As Why_Me questioned above however, you WILL need a much higher WATT PSU to run SLI 580's then 560's which would also increase cost.
