7950GT SLI Vs. single 8800GTS

FRAPS is what I use. There is an ingame command line option to display fps but i forget what it is.

and your probably best waiting, the 7950 is still a great card. no real reason to upgrade off that at this time.

Oh yeah I forgot, I can see it with FRAPS.

Sounds good. But it insn't because my card doesn't server me well, it's just that the feeling that you can get a card that doubles or even triples the performance. But anyway I'll wait and see what comes up.

You would need the 8800gtx to triple the 7950... thats a sweet card.
Ya the 8800 gts 640 would get near a doubling in some games, but you current card should be good until new games start to get released in a couple months, but by then you'll have options on the 8850 refresh

It also has a lot to do with the resolution you play in

If you're running a higher resolution, get the 8800 with 640 on it. Running another card in sli means you will need a bigger ps. I'd say just save the money now, and get an 8800gtx later, the price on them will drop by the time you need one.
