    Thanks. I got a second EVGA GTS 250 for $85 bucks!!! Alas, my sheapo move failed to net positive results. I'm now forced to spend double the amount on a GTX275 and I'll have a gts 250 lying around which seems like a massive waste.

    But... you can't do SLI you couldn't do Crossfire anyway (and vice versa). Simple matter of volumes.

    Now a single PCI-express card should work wherever a single PCI-express port happens to be available. So if you haven't bought that GTX275 yet then you can have some more fun with comparing prices/specs of ATI cards, too.

    Get a 5850, not a GTX275.
