    I have a XFX 7800GT 256 and I am planning to go SLi when I have the spare cash.

    I would just like to know weather or not its going to perform much better than my single 7800GT and if its worth the extra £170? Odviously 2 cards is going to be better than 1 but in what ways, what effect will the second card have? :confused:

    How about selling your current 7800GT, getting a 7900GT and enjoying 7800GTX + speeds?

    What kenco_uk said.

    There quicker, quieter, cooler, smaller and cheaper than the 7800GTX, and you won't have to stump up much cash if you get a good price for your 7800GT on Ebay.

    Go for one with the higher clocks, 500+ / 1500+

    XFX 7900GT: 520mhz / 1.5ghz - £224.94 inc VAT: http://www.ebuyer.com/UK/product/106255... Not bad for the dosh :)

    What res do you plan on running games?
