Do I SLI?

[Swagger187]

I am looking into purchasing the BenQ XL2420T as to upgrade my current 60hz LG 22" monitor. With my current MSI 670 OC reference card in Battlefield 3 I am averaging 87-93 on Ultra on a 32 player Rush server on Davamand Peak for example. My question is to make the full use of an 120hz monitor should I get myself another MSI 670 OC and run them in SLI?

I have many questions on this, such as:

> Is this needed?
> Is this a bit of an overkill?
> What heating issues will there be?
> How will my stock 3570K with stock heat sink cope?
> Should I upgrade from my Cooler Master CM 690 II Nvidia Edition case to maybe a Trooper/Stryker?
> Also looking at a Corsair AX760 would this be sufficient or should I go for something like the HX1050?

Thanks in advance.

I will be upgrading to a 24" 3D BenQ XL2420T pal.

Well I have the MSI 670 OC in my basket on Overclockers with the Corsair TX850. The temptation to hit buy is unbearable.

I've bottled it (well for now). I am going to go ahead and buy the BenQ XL2420T andthey see how my current PC will perform. Going on that basis I might then wait for the new GPU's depending on there launch time and get a 780 or whatever then.

Ok so I have the monitor turned up on Saturday. Rearranged my whole desk and booted it up. WOW! Battlefield looks amazing. I have on the high preset and staying around 80 on stock cpu/card and haven't dipped below 60 fps on Oman like my previous set up. Seems really smooth so impressed os far.

I will be giving it some time now maybe next year where I will look back into either going SLI or getting a later GPU.

Side note: XL2420T is amazing monitor and looks really good. Also love the screen cover.
