SLi/Xfire or Single Card solution?. For me switching to SLi or Xfire would be a totally new thing for me I have through the years had one single gpu video solution. I would have to buy a new mobo and 2 video cards and check it out? What do you guys think should...

high end single card solution. well, ati has certanly impressed a bunch of people with the 3870x2. but i want to know when we will see a single card that can do the same thing, something like a 8800gtx. some games dont use cross fire, thats why im asking. totally...

650i mobo, so I've been leaning more towards a single card solution. Any advice would be very much appreciated. Thanks! Go with either a gtx 260,or a 4850.Bothe cards are great performers,twice the performance of a 8800gt.Either one will give performance...

single cards in that they take up no more space than any other single card with dual slot cooler. The 4870x2 (which, IMO, has the better design) is, indeed, a true single board and card solution, whereas the GX2 is a single card, but not a single board. In...

intrested in the 9800GX2 or 3870x2, they will have more power than any single card solution. I post a few times on the 9800gx2. Mainly because it can use my duel screen setup. I'll have to disable its sli feature since its an sli card. So the 9800gx2 is useless....

last less than it would have without the extra card. And yes, you did ignore my comment about lower games compatibility than a single card, and yes, you did ignore my comment about extra electricity cost, and yes, you did ignore the clutter the extra card...

will seal the fate of the motherboard because upgrading the video cards to, say GTX 260 SLI'ed in the future, won't allow the full potential, meaning that you're not getting your money's worth. No doubt dual card solutions will be faster than single card solutions,...

performance. I think the single card solution is better. If you can meet your performance needs with a single gpu card, that is the way to go. 4870-1gb, or GTX260-216 are both comparable cards at a good value. GTX275, GTX285 or 4890 are the best single...

a single card solution with the plan of selling it rather than using it when I upgrade down the line. Which option makes the most sense?. I am trying to decide on a graphics card for my new build. I have narrowed it down to the sapphire 4870 toxic edition,...

can do without with summer here and an extra card over a year will increase running costs a fair enough amount that a single cards savings could be used to buy a better single card ;) oh, and maybe a little quieter too The Asus 4890 come factory OC'd...
