SLi certification is only important when it comes to motherboards and graphics cards.

SLi certified cases simply mean that they're big enough for the larger Nvidia graphics cards. SLi RAM just means that it's able to auto-detect appropriate RAM timeings. SLi PSU's just mean that they've been tested with certain SLi systems and are powerful enough. However, when i comes to PSU's you're always better off checking the amps and rateings of the rails anyway.

Sorry for not replying sooner, I simply didn't notice your post since all the stickies were combined into one thread.

For a single 9800GX2 you'll have to disable SLi in order to run more than one monior off it. There is supposed to be a workaround that I am currenly looking into, but haven't been able to confirm whether i's rue or false.

You don't need nTune installed to enable SLi as the nVidia Control Panel that is installed with the Forceware drivers has the option to enable SLi.

Lets say I have an eVGA 8800GT-Superclocked

Would I be able to throw in say an 8800GT or does it have to be a GT-SC.. As far as I know there are no major changes to the SC aside from the fact that its factory overclocked. I am just curious, because two GT-SC's are kinda expensive but I wanna go SLI and vanilla 8800s are pretty cheap now.

As long as it's a GT, yes. You can use the regular 8800GT, but it'll run at the speeds of your slower 8800GT.

I have Vista 32bit and as you know, it only supports 3.5GB of RAM, If I add another GTS, Will my RAM show up as 3GB?
