So I am debating what to get for my new system. Since they are about the same price.... Should I get 2 GTX 260 Core 216's in SLI or one GTX 285 (maybe the 2 GB model)???

Please evaluate them on these different categories as to which would be better.

1) FPS running at 1900x1200
2) Running on a GIGABYTE GA-EX58-UD5 mobo, would i run into cooling issues?
3) Noise

I will have a PSU that will meet both options needs (Corsair 850), and the case will be a Cooler Master ATCS 840, so I think the cooling should be sufficient.

Thanks!

The 260 in SLI would be faster.

So according to that article, correct me if I am wrong, but the GTX 260 in SLI blows away a lot of other cards, sometimes even GTX 285 in SLI?

A couple weeks ago I saw EVGA GTX 260 core 216 for about $155 before tax including the rebate, now that is not a bad deal. They have gone back up a bit, but it still seems like a better deal?
