hi there...

i was wondering what you guys would recommend as the best video card option - 2 6800gt's running in sli (using pciexpress) or one 7800? also, when running 6800's in sli, are you required to use dvi only?

thanks!

    One 7800 will run cooler, require less from your PSU, give you room to grow (by adding another later on), be cheaper and perform at least as well. Kinda sounds like a no brainer to me. Just like buying 1 6800Gt vs 2x 6600GT's but with better propotionate savings! :cool:


    EDIT:

    PS
    Once you move into 2x 6800GT's, 1x 7800 or 2x 7800 you will need the highest quality PSU no matter if you can affor it or not. There are only a few that will be reliable enough to meet the demad of the task!
