em ... sorry but as i know 7970 run about 98-100% on pci 2.0 8X .. is that same as pci 1.1 16 X ? if yes then well :D Great .. im safe at least 3-4 years ....

So long as you have enough graphics memory, otherwise swapping will occur. Some people found out they got better performance from a single 1GB 560TI than running 2 in SLI (8x 8x) with BF3 as it needed 1.5GB of video memory to contain all the textures.
