Twinning graphics cards

[dandy man]

I have an XFX Nvidia GeForce128m 660GT and am thinking of upgrading am I better buying a single card or is there any merit in twinning. I was thinking of possibly buying two 256mg cards.

Hello,

What motherboard do you have?

 

[saltynay]

you need an sli motherboard and with a graphics card that old you might aswell just sell and buy a new one like the 8800gts 320mb

 

[mssssee2]

Firstly you have to identify which type of card do you have? AGP (ACCELERATED GRAPHICS PORT) or PCI-EXPRESS? Seccondly I would recommend you to buy a single 512 mb DDR2 card of ATI (Radeon X1600 to be accurate) ( if having AGP) which is the cheapest product for what it offers. I bought it for 99 euros (150$) and I am very satisfied.

Hello.thanks for response.
I have a ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe.Card is a XFX 6600 gt pcie.Athlon64 3200/939pin and 1g of Samsung ram.

 

[saltynay]

well you need some more ram and for a more general performance boost an Athlon 64x2. what is your budget???

 

[dandy man]

£200,at this time.Perhaps it would be better spent on twin ram?Or a faster cpu?

 

[saltynay]

yeah I would get a new cpu and some ram get your all round performance a boost and then save up for a new graphics card and get an 8 series by mid-summer the whole range would be out so that could be a good time to come back for card. What psu do you have??
