Quick question, I have the Galaxy 8800GT in my system and my son has the EVGA 8800GT in his. He is looking to go SLI with his card or mine, his motherboard is the 590 SLI so he should be ok there. What I'm wondering is if there is any real difference between going SLI with two EVGA 8800GT vs the Galaxy 8800GT? I know the cooler on the galaxy is better so that would be good in keeping the heat down but he has an Antec 900 that sounds like a plane it has so many fans going, don't think heating will be a big issue. Other than that, any real reason to go with one over the other? I also understand that EVGA has a better warranty and the step up program but am looking purely at performance.
