A lot of great choices.
Hmmm I'm not as confident about SLI yet so I'd probably find a buyer for
your current 7800GT or give it to a friend and buy one 7900 GTX but then I
realize that is a more pricey option and one 7900 GTX isn't going to give
much more performance than two 7800 GTs I suppose. Of course, that
fluctuates game-to-game.
Did you see the review/comparison he

They actually show a lot about the exact situations you are thinking about!

Ok, so it appears that the 7900GT will cost a little bit more than a
7800GT costs right now (vendors depending, of course, and this in
Australia where everything is a little more expensive video-card wise).

If the 7900GT slightly exceeds the base clocks of a 7800GTX (450/1320 vs.
450/1250), I'm assuming 2x 7800GT (in SLI) will outperform a single
7900GT.

Um...is this right?

Essentially - should I go ahead and buy a second 7800GT (leadtex extreme
450/1050)?

Or wait and buy a single 7900GT?

I think this might turn out to be a very, very stupid question...but I
need reassurance!
