    What I've been telling people lately is that my experience with SLI has been positive, but that their mileage may vary depending on their hardware and the game they're playing. Normally, I would never straight up tell someone to buy two video cards for their system just so they can turn up their settings a little bit, because most people will be just fine (and happier financially) with just turning down their settings a little bit and only using one video card.

    Good to know it seems to be working well with D3, though.
    Ya. I tried wow, doesn't do much there. It helps maybe 10%-15%. D3 is special

    I get much more than a 15% boost in WoW with SLI (bottom of my post), but that's exactly why I can't really recommend SLI as a solid upgrade path -- You get 15% and I get at least 30%, but the next guy might get an actual loss of FPS so... /shrug
