    The general consensus is that you shouldn't use dual-GPU cards to multibox with. If you do, you're most likely only going to be using only one of the GPUs at any given point in time. Also, the card is marketed as 4GB, but it's only 2GB because 2GB + 2GB unfortunately does not equal 4GB on dual-GPU video cards.

    Do they not offer anything besides a 1200W PSU which retails for almost $300? I guess if it comes in a pre-packaged deal you can't turn it down, but if you have options, that PSU is will only be used to its potential with a tri or quad-SLI/CF setup.

    Agreed, In my second pc i have the GTX690 and only 2gb outta the 4gb total is being utilized. My main computer now has the GTX680 4gb single gpu card and the difference is pretty big, at least while playing wow. I can run 15 box on the gtx 690 and it just about reaches maximum memory usage. With the gtx 680 the extra memory allows so much more potential. Wish SLI would work toward WoW since my 690 is being basically half waisted
