Okay, I'm not getting a SLI setup or a new video card, so don't drive ads or stuff. I just want to know, what's the benefits of using a SLI set up, especially in applications where two 6800nus (totalling about 360) cost the same as a 7800GT.

There is no benefit in using SLI when you can buy a single card that outperforms the SLI set. The only reason you should ever do that is if you already own the first card and can afford the second card, but not an upgrade to a better single card.
