After looking at a great review recently I'd get the 9600GT SLI- let me scan in the article... Bear in mind this is coming from a guy who HATES dual graphics configurations so it had to be good, damn good!

The entire article was extremely critical of dual configurations just like myself - however they said this was on of the the only cards they would actually go for in SLI as it was actually a good deal better than one and wasn't bugged to hell.

Get the 9600GTs, I'm really happy with mine and you'll get more for two cards later on down the road versus the one if you decide to sell them.
