I am in the process of putting together my buying list for a new rig and I am trying to determine if I should go SLI or not. I have some questions that may seem dumb to some, but I am a noob when it comes to sli so please be gentle:
In order to see any benefit from two video cards will I need a 30 monitor?
How much power do the video cards have to have? As an example, do I need
a 8800 GTS OC or will an 8600 work just as well?
If I decide to by on card now and another later will this seriously degrade the
performance of the monitor and the game experience?
Is there a best practice method for purchasing SLI components?
For all of you who have taken the plunge, would you do it again?
Is the perceived value worth the expense?
If there is anything else I should consider please let me know.
Thank you
