I just read this review http://www.amdreview.com/reviews.php?rev=SLI today. I never read a review from AMDReview before so I'm not certain but this looks very much like an AMD company propaganda site. They say "SLI requires a very powerful CPU to make it worthwhile, so I would recommend not going with SLI unless you've already maxed out your CPU, so get an FX-55 or 4000+ if you want SLI." This didn't make sense to me. Correct me if I'm wrong but games run at high resolutions are almost completely video card dependent. Aren't they? If this is so, then what difference would it make if your processor was a 3000+ or a FX-55?
 
Well I think the reason they said that was because with SLI, your system could bottleneck very easily, thats why its best to have a very good cpu. With a 300+ you probably wouldnt see a bottleneck with one 6800gt, but probably could easily with 2
