i'm not sure that i even have room in my system to do SLI, even though I do have a mobo that supports it.
according to the benchmarks listed previously, the 8800gt 512 is still a good bit lower than the 8800 GTX 512.
Do you mean 8800GTX 768MB?
And by a good bit slower, in most games it's 10% or about 3-5 fps. Not worth $160 difference to me, but maybe if you have more available cash it would be worth it. Keep in mind that the (G80-based) GTX is going to run hotter and use considerably more energy than the (G92-based) GT.
Also keep in mind that it'll spank the GT in high resolutions/AA. Still not worth it tho, if you want to go 88xx, an XFX 8800GTS 512mb would be a good buy cause you can sell it for a good price with the transferable warranty and get a 98xx if they turn out to be good.
so the 8800 gts 512 would be the recommended step up from a 8800gts 320?
