    Help choosing New Graphics card

    Currently I run 2 x 6600gt in sli mode. Im looking to upgrade and some advice would be great.

    Would I be better off getting a top spec card 7900gtx or x1900xt? Or getting two other cards and continuing down the sli route?

    My budget is £350 - £400.

    Cheers

    agreed i wild be looking at the single card that is at the top of my budget then later adding another.. and i dont think that there is a massive difference between ati and nvidia right now, all about preference but i suppose if u want the sli option again later then a 7900 would suit
