1x 7800gtx outperforms 2x overclocked 6800u in sli. :lol: and imo these cards are not worth buying untill nvidia and ati bring out the real deal.

I dont think Iv read the same reviews as you... I believe the 7800 performs about as good as 2 6800gt's stock, but 2 6800u's? thats stretchin the truth.

The 7800's are fads. They will only perform better at higher resolutions, but what good that does that do you when you have an LCD that only does 1280x1024? The 6800GT is not behind on numbers when running at that resolution.

 

Here's a better idea. Find a card with dual cores and then get an nForce4-4X motherboard. Nvidia made it easy to do a pin mod on the 4X so that you can make it into an Ultra. From that point, the x16 slot will be converted into 2 x8's allowing a dual core card to run in SLI.

1 prolem with gettin one 7800 now and one later... they have to be completely identical to work in sli .. well u might say that hey.. ill go to the same company ... but they have to be IDENTICAL .. like perfectly identical .. like EVERYTHING right down to the BIOS.. so yea .. but go with 1 7800gtx .. it does do just as good or better than 2 6800s
