You can expect a difference between 3 and 30 fps on most newer games... it really depends on the settings. For example, if you played half life 2 with a low resolution and no AA or AF there would be a very small gain with the ultra. On the other …

The 6600GT PCI-E, 6800GT PCI-E, and the 6800ultra PCI-E are all SLI compatable. The hard part is having deep enough pockets to afford a $250 (USD)+ motherboard that supports SLI, not to mention having to buy 2 cards!

Is it possible to add fan slots to a case? The case in questions would either be the Silverstone Temjin TJ-06 or the Antec Super Lanboy. Thanks for the help. If it is possible please include a link or instructions, thanks for the help.
