Ok so I've been talking to an IT guy for awhile and I'm no so sure he knows what I'm talking about.
Specs : Dell 700GR -- MS Windows XP SP2, Intel Pentium 4 CPU 3.40 GHz, 1.0 GB RAM, EvGa Nvidia GeForce 7900 GT w/ 256 MB
Now I want to either run the card in SLi mode with another cheaper SLi card, or upgrade the Video Memory. DDR or whatever you call video card memory. Now the IT guy keeps saying I can't run it in SLi because the BTX board doesn't support it or have PCI Slots or something. And I actually looked on the Dell support site and found it does have PCI slots.
PCI-E x16: 1
PCI-E x1: 1
PCI: 3
To be exact.

Now does this mean I could run in SLi mode? Or can I just add some extra memory to make it as fast as a 512 card? I plan on getting a new computer case and PSU if I run SLi.
Sorry if I sound like a newb, I've just started focusing on my computer heavily the past few months.
