Watt usage, Single Vs CF/Sli , is it worth it.??

it the extra watt, worth the extra power, if you play a lot, like 5 hours a day.


5770
Vs
5770 in CF

460 gts vs 460 gtx
Vs
460 Gts sli

Im only gaming at 1680x1050
i would love to try out eye infinity or souround gaming, ia some point i just cant justifie the extra Watts used if gaming a lot.

it seems the 460 series are power hungry over the 5770/5830, and oc they dish out more power.

and last Will the 6000 series use more power or less...??

No point at that res unless you go for more screens which you said you might do at some point. Upgrade for that when you buy the screens. Tbh electricity is cheap so don't worry about it too much.

its not so cheep over here, and gaming like 4-6 hours a day can do its damage on the wallet
