hi guys, quick question, can a XFX9800GTX be paired up with a ENGTS250?
According to
FiringSquad, you can SLI 9800GTX+ and GTS250 provided they have the same amount of memory. e.g. 512MB 9800GTX+ must pair with 512MB GTS250.

NVIDIA says the GeForce GTS 250 will run in SLI with the 9800 GTX+, but the two cards must have the same amount of memory in order for SLI to function: you won’t be able to pair a 1GB GeForce GTS 250 with a 512MB GeForce 9800 GTX+.

Helo guys... its been a long time since my last visit.. bdband probs..
Got some Q here..
I'm planning upgrading to i7 by this year end, ive done my calculation, around Rm5K to be spend on i7, meaning i gonna biuld the setup from sratch..
OR if i just upgrade my GPU to...say.... GTX285?? And a HDMi 24" LCD Mon...
Which one is more considerable??
Is it worth go from my current CPU to i7???
COZ ive just read at some other forum says that upgrading GPU is more advisable than spending more on i7 (standard speed)... coz they say E6600 OC to 3.2, 3.5 even 3.6ghz is enough to process todays latest games.. because games is more utilise GPU rather than CPU...
U guys can see my sig.. ive manage OC my old E6600 to 3.26ghz.. more than that, it'll crashhh...

I'd recommend you to upgrade the latter choice (GTX285 + Mon). Core i7 motherboard is not worth the price yet. Your current CPU is good enough if it runs at 3+GHz.
EDIT: Have you considered SLI GTX275? I think it's around RM200 more than GTX285 only but the performance is much better.
EDIT2: Or you can keep your SLI 8800GT now, and wait for GT300 to be released.
