This one is for people using multiple GPUs, doesn't matter if it's 2 or more. Also want to see people using 5970s, 295s etc.
 
Not gonna vote here as i've never tried multiple GPUs (and probably won't now i've moved to mini-ITX) but I expect ATI to walk this one.

Simply because of the exclusivity they enjoyed with Intel chipsets.
 
Never used SLi, the 5970 is my first card that enables crossfire but i have seen SLi in action and i would probably go for the cheaper option tbh which i guess would be ATi.

I'm going to be going Crossfire at some point, but would much rather be going SLI. :(

A nice pair of GTX460 1gb. Yummy stuff.
 
Ran a pair of 5770's and worked flawlessly in every game, was very impressed. Haven't used sli yet but i'm sure they would also run flawlessly. Great tech, only reason I upgraded was for simplified watercooling :)
 
I think I speak for a lot of people looking at investing in dual GPS setups that it will probably be Crossfire but would perhaps rather have had SLI.

It is the whole availability of motherboards support versus stability of drivers thing.
 
Wasn't sure if this was a "What you're using now" or a "Which you prefer/which is better" question, I went with the former.

I prefer SLI though, nvidia drivers just seemed to be more, fluid.
