SLI different cards

[fuzecx]

You've probably heard this before -

I have 2 8800's. One is a GT 512MB and the other is a GTS 320MB OC Edition. Can i bind them for SLI?

 

[setter]

No it wont be possible. you need two cards the same for sli.

Sell them both and buy a HD 4850, youll be better off.

Don't Sell them both, sell one and buy another 8800gt, youll be better off.

8800GT SLI is pretty dam fast tbh

Stock coolers replaced with the S1 coolers gives me 760 core 2100 memory and scores pretty much on par with the 9800gx2.

A lot of 8800GT aren't going to get 760 core tho - but even so if you get around 700 8800GT SLI is pretty speedy.

LOL i've seen great reviews for the 4850. I'd have one now if I could afford it. I don't play lots of games apart from COD2 and 4 so I'm going to wait until COD5 comes out and see whats best for it, plus I want to save up for a better overall system. The GTS 320MB OC cost me nearly £200 and it was a big dissappointment for the games I play. Any card I bought before that was less than £40 lol.

A single 8800GT will power thorugh most games at upto 1680x with max details and even the 320Mb GTS won't struggle too badly.

8800Gt or 8800GTX? which factually better

 

[Monkeynut]

8800GTX is more powerful but more expensive. Better at high resolutions though.
