What is better? gtx 460 2win or gtx 460 dual SLI?????

[Nick Razzleflamm]

hay all, i don't know if this is a noobish q. but i really wanna know. What are the differences between a 2win and dual 460? i know the 2win has dual 460 gpus, but, i'm thinking if those two setups have any difference.....(at all)

Please. I need immediate help.

Thanks

well depends on what 460s you would be buying and whether you are going to overclock

if you want it to use less pci-e slots then the 460 2win would be better

if it was me I would buy 2 460s as it can work out cheaper

or even look towards 2 gtx 560ti as again it is cheaper and would outperform it

Just buy a 570 or a 580. 2x 460's are weak when it comes to details. Plus its not worth spending that money on older hardware.

What about the bitrate of the cards?? The 2win is 512bit, but the 460 is 256.. if i SLI 2 460s, will i get 512bit??

You cannot sli the gtx 460 2 win card. So Nothing will happen.

Yea but a single 570 is .. well... i was gonna get a 2win, which beats the 580.. so i don't really wanna get a card which is second to the 580...

anyways, i may consider getting 2 560s.... what do you think about that???
