you wont feel a big diff in sli, only if you want to fly with it!!!

Well he's running crossfire. ATI's crossfire scales MUCH better than Nvidia's SLI with multiple card configs.

Thought I'd bump this, in case anybody had any good FAQ's I could put in there... Also, maybe sticky it? I see a lot of people making threads asking about SLI and CF...

Sorry if this is threadmancy, but it is stickied, sooo...

In your guys' experience, which is better, crossfire or SLI? I know what Russian777 thinks, but how about the rest of you?

Oh god. Can I get an extra BFG Tech 9800GT to run either SLI or Crossfire on my Gigabyte GA790X UD4P Mobo?
