SLI working

[ingsoc84]

Understand completely. As for sli, I've heard that two cards does not essentially give you twice the vram of the sinle card,..so is it the case that one card opertaing at 2.1vram or higher will always be better fps than say two 570's?
How are your frame rates with the two 570? I run original textures, grass off..forests low, buildings low, land shades low, fps is improving with these adjustments, but I'd like to see them consistenly 50=60....another question, would I get much of a benefit from increasing my cpu from say 3.3 to 3.5, or is the gpu really the key here?

Thanks again for your help, makes the choices easier to hear from someone who has been building for years, I've been at it for about 10 years, I've always thought one beefy card is better than two cards in sli, probably should have got the 580, wanted the 590, just too pricey, and I was hearing of bugs with it. The game obviously is still in its teething period as far as bugs, enhancements and improvements, so probably best to wait till the tree has been fully shaken and everything falls into place, which is probably at least 6 months down the road if not more like 9. SH5 was pretty bad untill the issues were all worked out, and when the modders got ahold of the stable game, it really shined at that point, and is awesome, if you like subsims


thanks again!
