New PC Delema

[TheGeek]

For my new PC, should I get an A64 4000+ w/ 2 6800GT's or a 3500+ with 2 6800 Ultras. Both would be about the same price

SLi is pretty much a waste unless you want the absolute best performance and actually play at higher resolutions where it would make a difference.

How about the A64 4000+ with 1 6800 Ultra...you could add another later and still have the faster Square.

 

[andy nowotny]

the latter

the 6800U sli need a stronger CPU like fx55

o, i like the idea of the 4000+ and the 1 6800ultra so you can upgrade later
