Some very interesting comments coming from both camps... I look at it in much more simpler terms.

Regarding Dual GPU setups... While I enjoyed the scaling of my SLI setup back in the day I didn't enjoy the headaches involved everytime there was a driver update. Studders galore in IL2 and even with a lot of tweaking and messing around with the newer Nvidia drivers you still can't entirely get rid of studders in IL2.

My choice to go with a 580 was simple. I wanted the fastest possible card without the tweaking crap that comes with multi GPU setups. For those trying to save a buck it certainly does scale well and it looks like AMD stepped up with their new rev of drivers and cards.

Sure sure you can save a few bucks and get great scaling with multi GPU setups but it does come at a cost. You will pay for it eventually. I have yet to see Nvidia or ATI come out with perfect drivers.

I'm now running an EVGA 580 and it's been a fantastic NO hassel experience. In terms of SOW I don't think it's going to matter much which camp you're in though I know for a fact Oleg likes Nvidia.
