DFI & SLI:
I have a DFI LP nF4 SLI-DR mobo and I have been happy running a single GPU.
However, looking into running SLI (buying a second BFG OC 7800GT) I have come accross some disturbing threads where problems have been encountered as the PCI-e slots are very close together on this board, leading to some heat build up between the cards and ultimately shut downs and many problems have followed.
I am really struggling with this decision now, should I go SLI and deal with any problems I get (probably looking at £150 for a second card)
OR
Sell my 7800 GT and buy a faster single card solution ?
help & opinions most appreciated
