Graphics Cards - Help Needed ! :)

hey all.

could someone give me an explanation to whenever its better to Xlink 2x graphics cards or is it better to just have 1x larger graphics card?

i'm looking to spend £150~£250 on graphics card(s) on a new build i've thought up but i'm unsure what make/model of graphics card(s) to get to give me optimum performance for my price range.

could anyone help out and explain to me which i should go for. apparently there is little difference between NVIDIA and ATI as brands but when it comes to which model to go for i'm confused.

cheers

2 different opions there but could you give any reasons why you would go for Xfire or just go with the 1 graphics card ??

cheers.

any other opinion on what card i could get for roughly £200 (ATI and NVIDIA) which will give me the best performance?

no going to bother going for Xfire since the last 2 posts gave a very good reason why i shouldnt bother

the price doesnt nessessarily need to be under £200 .. it could be over as i did say i was prepared to go up to £250 earlier.
