ok, so running 2 medium level cards brings you the performance of a high end card at less price but more power is used so your accessaries (psu, mobo, and case cooling) must all be beefed up.
now i understand it better, and yes thats what i was thinking about. when i see them get 2 or 3 of those high end cards. to me it was pointless for anyone to spend that much $ unless you get some great reward from it. i guess if your running a 36" or higher monitor then maybe it could make a difference but not something i think is good for the smaller desktop monitors.
i could build 2 or maybe 3 high end computers with med-high end single video cards for what i see them spending on those multi high end video card rigs.
sorry about getting off topic
i just figured you guys were the ones to ask
