I really screwed myself.

Ugh. I feel like this is a very silly thing to whine about. Mods, please close this! 🙂

Just give it back and have him SLI it.

Make sure you say, "Sli this thing, pops."

If he looks bewildered, just give him a hug for a few seconds and walk away.

His board doesn't support SLI. And he plays only one game -- MS Flight Simulator. That POS of a program doesn't support SLI/xfire or even more than 2 CPU cores.

I'm thinking of just biting the bullet and picking up a 2nd 560 Ti 448 before it's too late.

The worst part of all of this is that I know my dad sacrificed buying himself a SNB (which would really help his simulator) to get me this card. I might just buy him a nice 2500K + Z68 board instead of that Phenom II X6 he's riding. It feels better to give than to receive...

yo dad = boss

 

[Udgnim]

your dad is just setting up a situation where he can SLI the cards

I really, really wish this were true!

 

[ensign_lee]

If you're going to get him a Z68 board, he will be able to SLI...?

 

[Oyster]

I hope your dad buys two 7970s for himself and gives you his current 560. That would be gold. LMAO.

Talk about first world problems... lol

 

[lavaheadache]

sell the 560 and give him the cash?

 

[Attic]

cool dad

 

[Blastman]

Just sell the 560 and use the proceeds towards a 7970. Tell your dad you had to have this new GCN technology because it's soooooo good.:thumbsup:

 

[3DVagabond]

Can your dad return the card he bought for himself?
