Currently trying to decide which the best card is in this upgrade. I'm going from 2x8800gts sli and wanted to know a few things about these cards. My rig is an e8400 oc'd to 3.8ghz with 4gb ram etc. Will the 295 be too much of a bottleneck? I intend on playing games at 1920 x 1200 resolution on a 24" screen. I want the highest settings I can get as well. My current setup is decent for today's games, although sometimes during high action I can get a noticeable slowdown. Also wanted to know, is the gtx 295 considered SLI to the operating system? Or does the OS recognize it as a single gfx card, but you get the performance of SLI setup? One last thing is with my current sli setup, there is this annoying bug in World of warcraft you cannot run the game in windowed mode without suffering a 40% fps drop, and if you happen to get get pop up warnings during gaming you get a little stutter while that happens. ( when my virus program updates it informs me via a little bubble pop up). Would I also have the same problems with the gtx295? Any help greatly appreciated as always.
