hehe, I learn something new every day. I also thought you had to have all sticks the same size, but 2 and 2 makes sense.

Thats not too bad there. I wouldnt be playing any "shooting games" in SL, but thats not too bad.

Took a little tweaking to get SL to use both cards but wow. Frame rates of 25 - 30 @ 192 draw distance with all the others settings at max. So, being brave I had a go with windlight client.


I've got a couple of 8600GTs linked with SLI.. and have assumed SL is using both already? What tweaking did you have to do, perhaps I'm actually only using one? (About says nothing about two......)

well considering i usually keep 96m dd, low particles and 3/4 maxed out graphics it does improve

i have a pic of me up in the sky hitting 116 fps on this same machine last year (with more ram but running @ 333mhz)
