well your right about the mixed reviews about sli, without vsync I think it's useless. Remember this 1 7800gtx will out perform 2 6800 ultra's in sli mode. Their's simply no game the 7800gtx will not run with the proper hardware support. for the next 3 years.

there's a thread started earlier about a 3700 bottlenecking the card, but honestly speaking, I beleive a 3500 will support that card just fine. You won't see huge performance leaps now but as these new games come out, you will find they run with more eye candy plus a better frame rate. if you want sli get sli but only if you want dual 7800 series, as 1 7800gtx will out perform, stick with it, until they get the kink's out of sli.
