No infact thats what alot of people do, buy now buy another later. Instead of buy now buy. i mean if you want the performance now, its buy now now, but i buyed now and got another a few months ago.

Thats good either SLI or Crossfire though right?

Best solution

Yes, SLi requires the same card ( I'm nearly sure ), and Crossfire requires a card from the same family (any 69xx card with work with another 69xx) but will run at the frequency of the slowest.

The only issue is if you buy a reference card with stock frequency of say 800 MHz, don't invest in a second one with a higher core frequency unless you have room to overclock the first to the same clocks.
