Last year I got a Intel Core2 Quad Q9400 from Dell that came with a GeForce 9800GT. I'm thinking of buying a second 9800GT to run in SLI. I would greatly appreciate some advice--as I'm quite inexperienced when it comes to graphics cards (as my questions will reflect!)
What is the easiest way to check that my motherboard is compatible with running graphics cards in SLI?
Will a second 9800GT result in a noticeable performance/graphics increase for upcoming games (e.g., Mass Effect 2).
Does it matter what brand I go with for the second 9800GT (i.e., should it be the same brand/have the same specs as the one that I currently have in my PC, or does that not matter)?
Thanks in advance
