I have a M2N SLI Deluxe mobo that I'm upgrading to a GTX570 from 8800GT and I don't want the previous card to go to waste and I was wondering if dual card was plausable with these two or should I simply not bother? I understand that it is normally best to just use two identical cards but again I just didnt want my other one to go to waste since it's only 2 years old and still completely fine.
I wasn't sure what forum section to ask this question in, I hope this is okay.
Thanks in advance

I was torn between these two forms of memory by Corsair and with a decent amount of searching I couldn't find a solid answer on the difference between XMS2 and normal Corsair memory.
I know that there is slightly better cooling on the XMS2 product (but I haven't found anything conclusive other than that) so I purchased that one already, I'm almost positive it should work on my M2N SLI Deluxe board but I just wanted to be completely sure.
