Just wanted to give you guys head up that nvidia is not standing behind there sli support. I post my problems on slizone forum. Instead of answer my thread was locked. Sli can't support many games and tvs with resolution of 1080i. With so many drivers update they still can't get it down. Now they are moving to quad sli. I wish i hadn't done it and bought x1900xt with decent single slot motherboard.
Here is copy of my post on the slizone and nvidias response

Beating my head against the wall after building a SLI computer with all the Hype around it. I was on Budget but wanted future awsome power full SLI computer with very decent motherboard. I got 650i ASUS PN5-E SLI board and two BFG 7600GTs for my setup. I plug the computer in my 3 months old 40" Samsung 1080i/720p TV. At first i am so happy, then i start the games and like many others here unable to run games over 720p resolution in sli mode. I can't play DOOM 3 and UT2004 on my TV with SLI enabled. SLI technology is over a year old. There have been so many drivers update. Yet this issue exists. I could have saved money or bought decent single mother board and one decent card. So far the second card is yet to show significant gain. I really thought all the people that bash SLI were so called haters. But I am beating my head against the wall. So lesson learned are:
DON'T DO SLI IF YOU PLAN ON USING YOUR EXPENSIVE HDTV WITH 1080I RESOLUTION BECAUSE NVIDIA DOESN'T GIVE 2 F@*%S ABOUT SLI ANYMORE.. THEY JUST WANT TO FORGET ABOUT THIS ISSUE.. F@#$ YOU NVIDIA.. YOU A$$HO@#S..
