when you go the option of SLi
you have to choice
SLi for max system performance
or
de-SLi, which means you have 2 GC and 4 means of video output

whats the use?
well for me,
i could play s.t.a.l.k.e.r. SOC
while playing NCIS on the other monitor(my 29" TV to be precise)

used to do this connecting to one of the cards
but found that it would be stuttering to the game as well as the video playback

when i separate them both
the stuttering goes away..

this will be more pronounce once the HD media is wide spread

did the SLi indicator there when you play 3d stuff
even the customize 3d performance in nvidia control panel can show the SLI indicator

provided you turn it on and running in SLi



for 8800gt
minimally i think you require 600w of true power to maintain a stable system

get a pc power and cooling 750W
konperm can use

what does having multi monitor got to do with psu?

the only problem is with high rez,
the performance (meaning the smoothness) is affected
