^ Me too, me too.
But you know, the better/higher end the cards are, the more performance they yield so yeah. That's the only time I would consider a multi-card congif, you know, If im gonna use high or mid-high end cards.
And for that you need moneys! and I don't have them...
Yeah, Obviously getting a single 260 or 280 would be a better option. Getting the money and telling my parents "It's something I need for College" isn't really going to happen
Actually, BestBuy is the only electronics store (haven't been to MicroCenter though) that has good deals, they have great laptop prices, good video card prices (as seen above) and then you gotta thank them for having that "Rocketfish" for $50 Corey!
Too bad you don't have Fry's Electronics in your area. We have two within 30 miles were I live. Heard good things about Microcenter...

No I mean, I think that the only time one should use SLi/CrossFire is if you're gonna pair high-end cards.
And yeah! haha "Dad, we're doing a fundraiser at band practice, wanna buy an GTX280?"
Well, personally, I still consider the 8800GTS high end. I've read that in SLI, their performance is the same as a GTX260, sometimes even a GTX280!
Like that'd happen,
lol

Yeah, basically what I'm saying is that your 2 x 8800GTS's might yield a little more performance in SLi than 2 x 8800GT.

I think it'll run well. It'll look hella sick, that's for sure.
That's what I'm hoping... I don't want the performance, I want the computer pr0n
Ah right, Yeah. They should do

You had one issue with your 8800GT's. And to be honest it was probably a PEBKAC error or ID10T.
