| Would I be able to use both cards of a 295 if I use it with my gigabyte ep45 extreme board, which supports crossfire but not sli? I know its 2 seperate cards attached in SLI but because its a single pci slot does it need an sli mobo or is it fine to buy one? |

| if its a single gtx295 it should run fine, i thought it took care of the two cores itself? |

| single pcb is exactly the same as the 2 pcb one, only thing is it uses less parts and so is cheaper, and sli has to be enabled for the 2 cores to work so i wouldnt know if i need an sli mobo or not
edit: used 'the google' a bit, looks like its fine unless i want to use more than one 295 |

| good choice of card clerk....p.s you can use another cheaper card for physX in the spare pci slot as you know...that will last you a long time on the new games side....i can play all the latest releases like Batman, Section 8, NFS...that use physx on full spec/full res/aa etc. and runs/looks awesome, u wont be dissapointed! |

| what i've decided to do is get a gtx275 now because my stupid brothers giving me $300 for my gtx260 so that covers the cost of one of those ($270 from MSY) and then once the dx11 cards are released (gtx395... oooooohhh yeahhhhh) i can then waste my money on one of those beasts |
