What has SLI got to do with system memory? Absolutely nothing.

i only bought mine because its the cheapest RAM available. haha.
i was looking at SLI memory, it just EPP by Nvidia & Corsair.

the only difference is more aggressive timing with higher voltage.

jedec #3, 5-5-5-18 @ 1.8V
EPP #1 4-4-4-15 @ 2.2V

Smart!!! Memory have become more of a commodity, with little to differentiate different brands and models.

HAHA, we have casings that are SLI certified - supposedly SLI certified casings have superb cooling

SLIing 2x 9600GT is much cooler than a single GTX295.

the GTX295 is a damn hot GC, one that I can't remove with my bare hands after use. It's either I wait till it cools (obviously) or grab a cloth and protect my fingers.

But 9600GT is much slower than GTX295.

i know but it's damn hot.

we're talking about 13k PPD with 300w power consumption, going at around 90c - 100c even on air-conditioned and well ventilated casing.

that vs 6k PPD with 100w power consumption, going at less than 60c on each card.

imagine the air con also have to work harder to keep the room at cooling state. and the noise! arrgghh, the GTX295 is now migrated to rig #3. downstairs, cooling place with lots more room than where I'm based in.

i am most likely to move the GTX295 to main rig once I get Wolfenstein.
