6800 SLi or upgrade to one 7950?

[davew]

I am faced with a dilema when I bought my system I thought I could always upgrade to Sli in future but I reckon 1 x 7950 is going to be better than 6800's SLi am I correct?

Yup, I would always say go for the best Single card you can aford at the time, SLI only gives performance in certain games where a single card gives the performance in all games.

well its not a single card though is it.. or mabe it is.. who knows...

Anyway the 7950 would be faster indeed but also more expensive mabe?? Well def if you already have the single 6800

[davew]

thanks I can afford a 7950 but should I wait for DX10?

[nvening]

personally i would, depends on your cash flow though tbh

[Madafwo]

Whats your budget? You may be better of waiting for the mid range DX10 cards to come out, or push for an 8800GTS if Scan have one on today only again.

8800GTS would be a much better idea.
