8800GTX to 8800GT SLI

ok so the 9800GX2 didnt really work out (those freakin 8 pin PCI-E power cables, argh!!!!!!!)

anyway, since 9800GX2 is basically 8800GT(S) G92 x2, but together, wouldnt having 2x 8800GT in SLI be basically the same??

i mena SLI i can run with my mobo, and my PSU has the reqiured 2x 6 pin connectors (i believe each 8800GT uses 1)

does the 8800GTS 512mb use only 1 6 pin aswell>>???

oh, and any benchmarks on the internet (could you give me links?) and if any of you have 8800GT in SLI, if you could tell me some AVG FPS in games like, CoD4 and Crysis and WiC, that would be much appriciated

thanks!

Unless you're obessed with the best benchmarks I've found a single 8800 GT card to be able to run all current games at high settings. I'm more interested in gaming performance than benchmarks. Framerates are deceptive. The average human eye registers anything beyond 16 fps as continuous motion (this varies per individual) so spending a lot of money for SLI is a waste IMO. Right now a single 8800 GT card will give your excellent performance in all games. Save your money and buy a bigger monitor or better speakers. The will really enhance your gaming experience. My two favorite pc components are my monitor and my 5.1 speakers.fenriz275

I believe it is 60 fps

I play COD4 (maxed) at 30 fps and i really, really tryed to find it unplayable, laggy but it just wasn't even at heavy battles. Some games even drop to 20 or 16 fps (RT3,SC4) and they are still playable so i don't quite understand

"60fpsat least or i'm not playing"
