Hi, i have a 7800gtx and im thinking of buying another. i am wondering what games could take advantage of that rite now and will i be able to run future games pretty well compared to one card. so what im trying to say is, is it worth buying another card. i play fps games like fear bf2 css and so on, also alot of guild wars. also the card costs about 330$. here is my current set up:
evga 7800gtx
asus a8n sli board
amd 4000+(oc'd to 2.6)
2g corshair xms pro ram
 
This is hard to say, Adding another 7800GTX would help you ALOT if you game @ higher resolutions, or like to have max eye candy all the time. I've had SLi setup since SLI hit the market back what, 3 years ago or so, and Love it, but for some that dont game @ high resolutions SLI means nothing really. The other point of view looking at this is, how much could you sell your current 7800GTX for 350, give or take? If you sold your current card for 350, take that 350, add 249, and buy yourself a 7950GX2. That is what I would do. Take care......
 
I did the same a few months back and at the res I play at (1680x1050) the jump was awesome and well worth it.
 
Yeah but with the on-going price drops, the 7800gtx would fetch you at most around $300. People are having problems selling these things above $280 shipped. So, it may be worth it to just purchase another one and go sli.

Agree, just buy a used 7800gtx for 250ish.
