I've asked this before, but i wanna ask again. my sig system is what i'm dealing with here.
I paid $115 for my first XFX 8800GTX graphics card, and now I've just been offered an OCZ 8800GTX graphics card for $100. This would put the price for both GPU's at $215
the e8400 (xeon e3110 in my sig) is running at 4.0ghz.
Should I SLi the XFX 8800GTX i have now or try my luck on selling it off and getting a 260 or 4870?
I'm thinking SLi is the best way to go. for $215, i'll have 140% of the performance of a GTX280. that sounds pretty killer to me. the only games that stutter at 1920 x 1200 are COD4 and Crysis. actually, crysis can only run at 1650 x 1080.
oh yeah, and AA and AF are only really useable in FEAR, which is why i want to consider this. COD4 with no AA SUCKS BIGTIME.
the games that i play will scale very well (e.g. COD4 LOVES Sli, and Crysis digs Nvidia GPU's), which is why i think SLi is worth it.
