I have a BFG 8800gts and a EVGA 8800 gts...both are 640mb, i was just wondering how to hook these up in SLI...will the core clocks shader clocks and mem clocks all match or will i have to OC and UC to match them myself??also,in motherboards if both PCI slots are 8x will that give me way less performance than if they were 16x(in the more high end ones)...what exactly does that mean,8x and 16x

help would be greatly appreciated

thanks

It will down-clock (automatically) the fastest one to the lowest one.

(BFG 550MHz & EVGA 500MHz, both will work @ 500MHz)

Before this you must have a SLi motherboard

Pretty good board. Which processor you are going to buy?

Both will work @ 16x speed bcoz the motherboard supports both PCI-E 16X.
