i'm planning on starting a build in the next couple months and am looking at a 6800GS (stock overclocked) video card. the rig will be mainly for games and i want to make sure it runs everything beautifully. i was wondering if the 6800 will be enough or if i should get 2? also, using the 7800GTX what sort f graphics am i getting with 1 6800GS or with 2 6800GS'? Thanx.
sli, needed of not

ok well, if u say u can get 2 6800gs's that would mean u have quite a bit of money for ur graphics. if this is the case i would put all the money into one very good graphics card. eg 7800gtx or 7900gtx.
and if also doing it in a few months, the 7900 series are going to drop in price dramatically. at the mo they are very pricey!!
therefore if youve got an sli board, u have a very good future upgrade option in a few years time!

actually i do not have that much money i was just asking for the info in the future. but i have a more specific question: between a 7600GT and a 6800GS the 7600 has much higher cpu and memory clocks but is only 128 bit compared to the 6800's 256 bit memory interface. am i right in saying that i should go by the clock speed more than anything else?
