currently, i can either get 1 8800 GTX or 2 8800 GTS graphics cards. do you think SLI with the GTSs is better than 1 GTX? ive read the stats on how good SLI works, and im not sure if there will be much difference. anyone happen to have done this configuration and tested it?

1 8800GTX beats SLI 8800GTS currently and produces less heat and takes less watts.

wrong. Show me the benchmarks.

8800GTS SLI beats 1 8800GTX in "almost" every category. Less heat and less watts is a given.
 
i don't know where you found... or think 1 gtx is better than 2 gt's.... thats just plain wrong

it all depends on your resolutions... and what you pla... don't just go and say things like 1 gtx is better or as good as 2 gts'

some games will utilize SLi far more than others.... and in dx10.. who know's 8800gts' in SLi just may kick the crap outta 1 GTX
 
I am a little worried about getting a second 8800GTS because it would sit right below my first 8800GTS, therefore blocking the intake fan. That can't be healthy.
 
Plus SLI is never worth the money, because you're paying I think 100% more, for a 10-30% increase in performance. I think SLI is only useful in extreme resolutions.
