Page : <1> :


Well... I've decided to go SLI, and I need to know what else I will need, if anything. I currently have a 6600GT , and am thinking of getting either another 6600gt , or a 6800 (haven't found one that supports SLI, and is AGP... So if someone can help me out I would apreciate it). I still need a MOBO suggestion (the one I have now, as much as I like it, doesn't support SLI :( ). Will I need anything else? Can you suggest another card? Anything else to add?

What the hell are you talking about?

I found SLI a bit overkill IMO.

I have a single 6600GT and I am happy with it. It does great for what I need it for.

Racer, it's a great card by itself, I just like to tinker... That and I want to be able to run graphics on high on some of the higher-end games.

I did some research and there is no SLI on AGP. You must use PCI-E.

Yep, you're right, I was looking around and found that out myself. I figured if I had an SLI supported AGP card I could do it without PCI though. I think I'm just going to ebay this card, and get a PCI MOBO, and a 7800gt, or gtx (not sure which yet). But thanks anyway. :P

44 that exactly what I thought. XD

I have also a 6600GT as my graphic card. Looks pretty popular.

You don't have to let go of one rope before grabbing the other. But you'll have to let go of one if you want to swing forward.

I just got 2 of my friends to get 6600gt's. :P
I think I've made up my mind on a 7800gtx. They seem to be pretty good cards, and I can go for SLI later on if I need to.
UFO - SLI is pretty much used to get the most performance out of the cards currently out there... Or to just give you a little boost in performance without having to buy a 'bigger' card.
