wich woud perform better. i mean, because it would cost me the same.
2 6600GT's (100 to 150 eurie's for 1, so 200 to 300 total) or 1 6800GT/Ultra (200 to 300 euries).
 
y would u want 2 video cards on one computer?
It's called SLI :). 1 GT/Ultra should perform as well/better than 2 66GTs and you leave the door open for adding a 2nd.
 
the 6600GT is an SLI card (this is PCI Express), If the intention is to use in the system in your sig...well then I'd say one of these cards is pointless

no, im buying an albatron k8sli mobo. but you say, i could better go for a 6800GT/Ultra, because it performs as well as 2 6600GT's in sli?
we'll, i'd call that an argument :)
 
Heya

I would have to agree with chosing just one 6800GT (GT will do fine and can be oc'd easily to an ULTRA level). It will perform as well as two 6600GTs I would think. In fact in some operations the SLI mode with two 6600GTs will surpass the performance of a single 6800GT.

JAN :D
 
well. maybe yo riht, but its a 20pin connector on the psu, so i think i need to replace it anyway :)
but, thx for the replies everyon, this really helped me making a choice :P
 
1 6800GT. At some point you can add a second 6800GT.

Also single card works for every game. SLI doesnt improve every game only a few but when it does its sometimes incredible.

Also the 6800 in SLI is much more of an improvement that dual 6600GT because of the enhanced memory interface on the 6800GT.
