    Going SLI with my 7800gt

    why? couldnt i play at 12x10 with everytrhing maxed with NO slow down at all? why would a single 7800 512 gtx be pointless with a 17" tft and 2x 7800 GTS would not?

    Going SLI with my 7800gt

    Going SLI with my 7800gt

    will i notice a big boost at 1280x1024 from my current one 7800gt? In cod 2 sometimes i get stutters when things get busy. is it worthwhile for the outlay? also if i get the same card do they need to be overclocked the same speeds etc... thanks
