is there really that much of a boost?
was thinking of going 2 gtx 660 evga superclocked or 1 670 superclocked. but was also think of getting a 680 spuerclocked. basically what i'm considering
all EVGA superclocked...
2 660 3gbs in sli
1 670 4gb
1 680 2gb
orrr...
1 680 4gb (not superclocked)
and if i do go just 1 card, for example 670 4gb, will i have to get another 670 that is 4gb later if i decide to go SLI? or can i just get like a 2gb 670? i'm thinking of the 4gb single card now because i plan to use MANY hires texture packs in Skyrim, but i'd think 8gb down the line would be overkill.
also i'm told that SLI might not really be worth it. i read it gives a small boost (about 20%??) for double cost, takes up more space, and creates more heat and power consumption.
also that many games have trouble working with SLI, but can't you just turn 1 card off thru the drivers?
i know nothing about PCs and really won't be poking my head in the case much. someone told me if i'm not one to fiddle with the machine, then i'm not one for SLI. but i thought it was all handled from the screen?
thanks much!
