Would the 8800gt or the 8800gts be better for multi-boxing?
Depends. There are apparently 8800GT cards available for $90 after rebates. You'll gain 10% performance or so with the GTS. Is 10% worth $150-200 to you?
I bought an 8800GTS recently not for the extra performance, but because it blows hot air out of the case instead of inside it.
But if you're willing to spend that much on a card, you should probably buy an HD4850 instead. It just came out yesterday. Judging from initial reviews, it's more powerful and the price is lower.
If you do get the 8800 GTS, make sure you get the 512 MB version, not the 320 or 640 version. The 512 MB is newer technology and probably twice as fast.
