| I Drive A Mac | So I found this little guy and I have been thinking about getting it. Do you guys think this is worth the money? It is pretty damn expensive but running sli in a toaster is amazing. I wonder how the cooling performs. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16856101479

![]() | Thats a sweet rig and SLI to boot i dont see why not if i had the money i would jump on that with both feet, but its your call. The specs seem to be decent but the small size and SLI i can't think of a reason not to!

![]() ![]() ![]() | I was very interested in getting one before SLI became the thing to have. I was just going to fill out a barebones and give it to the wife. Did some reading of many reviews on it and kept hearing about heat issues and how loud they were, so I dropped the idea. Now, with SLI inside, I would be even more skeptical......... But, I admit I am not speaking from experience. It sounds great but I would be careful..

![]() ![]() | IMO, even lacking PCI (not really so important at all, in these days of 8ch+ onboard sound/ Nic), It'd make a real mean LAN gaming machine...

| Mastah Overclocker | Odlly enough, your wrong, the 7800's use less power!
http://anandtech.com/video/showdoc.aspx?i=2451&p=20 (256MB GTX models ONLY, I didn't check the 512's, they probably use more since they realy boosted the clock speeds) In fact, the 256MB 7800GT would use even less power, and its alot cheaper than the GTX, and will blow away a 6800Ultra. The 6800's are not a great value for the money/performace/heat/power consumption these days, and as far as the 6600's in SLI mode, a single 7800GT would "Toast" them for nearly the same money
