Was SLI motherboard really the way? Or did I make a wrong choice?

when did you buy your 680i?

i have some SLI-ready OCZ ram in my folding rig and that **** gets sick clocks with sick timings.
but, other than that, marketing ploy.

 

[Pinscher]

Ya, its not bad ram but its just a huge marketing ploy to get people who don't know better to buy them just because they say that.

 

[Nagasama]

yes , that may have been the case when ddr2 800 cost 300 bucks...but at SEVEN DOLLARS you cannot go wrong. that ram has the best timings out of any that are not CAS3.

 

[Pinscher]

SEVEN DOLLARS?! Which one? thats crazy! You definitely can't go wrong with that

Is SLI the way to go on the mother board so you can run 2 video cards? Do alot of people like SLI?

SLI and CF both suck...

Too much hassle, some benchmarkers love them, but your new to all this, I'd recommend not going it unless you run at 2560 res

I already bought a 680i SLI ready? I guess I jumped to fast. Should I just buy one good video card then?
