I was curious as to why as soon as the 7800gtx came out it seemed like they stopped production on it pretty fast. I thought about buying another one off ebay to SLI but i was curious as to what you guys thought. Should i buy another or save a little more for a new 8 series card?

Its a great card but I would wait for the next gen of GPUs (Hopefully Q3)

Because the 7900 refresh came, using a smaller process technology and allowing for higher core and memory frequencies, thus improved performance. As to your second question, I would save for an 8 or 9-series card because SLI reallllllly isn't worth the trouble and the performance gain is negligible when comaparing SLI'd 7800's to a single 8800 GTS or GTX.
