If according to my sig, would it be sufficient to run sli? My guess it would be just insufficient.

ive tried crysis on v high czu im using 19 inch monitor, it kinda lags quite often, most settings have to be on high.

hmm, maybe i should since im already using it.

hehe, sponsors anyone?

haha, nah, waste of money only . . . and 88gt already tried sli-ed them b4, had fun, now wanna try gtx series . . . but im waiting for the new release 1st.

wat is ur current gc temp? If its around 60-70 load, its should be ok to sli both. If ur so afraid, then just get a single slot.

go go and set up n post some pics n screenies here . . . a cooler which is single slot . . . thermalright t-rad is single i think, but it costs a bomb. Besides that . . . ac, xigmatek . . . good coolers take up 2 slots.

dunt waste ur time on those, seriously, just stick with the stock cooler is better. Anyways ur only getting 64C load, thats fairly good temps i would say.

grats on new mobo .Well u have to know corsair twin2x is not meant for oc, unless its dominator series, if planning to get 2x2gb rams n to oc, get those rams from lolahol bulk, those r ocverclockable rams.

haha, nah, nvm la, im happy with this board. No troubles for me, n i very lazy wanna pack it to sell. . Better save $$$ buy GC. Im not sure bout lolahol's bulk, better pm him n ask.

Haha yes its very true, cuz xfx layout not as good as striker II and the package doesnt include so much stuff.

For ur earlier post, yes i would say ur psu is too low for ur setup, it'll stress ur psu too much, heat-up etc, and in ur case its not enough juice. Get true power >550 at least, 600> best, ive used CM Real Power 550 for my Sli with 2 oc-ed 88gt's n oced proc, runs fine . . . though its a bit too much for the psu coz of ocing. Now im using CM 850 for my gtx260+ . . . single though, not sure if its sufficient for Sli.

well, sli doesnt mean games would run faster, a single card sometimes perform better compared to sli bcs of . . . im also not sure wat they call it, scaling i think

it couldnt be ur psu fault, if perf reduction can be caused by high temps, if not enough wattage . . . ur comp will shutdown like Eyern's. Anyhow ur PSU is also too low wattage for ur GC's. Get al least 600> wattt true.

heat is normal, as long theres good ventilation in casing it shouldnt affect anything. Single max 175 watt, x2 is 350w, not including proc, mobo, rams, hdd's, etc. 150w fro the rest is definitely not sufficient. Now true power psu is cheap to get, higher efficiency ull save better, low effi will cost u higher elec bill, watts taken by psu partly converted to output the rest to heat, thats wasting.

9800GT is = with 8800GT right? I got 14k 3dm06 single card and 18k SLI, but proc is oced to 4.2ghz
