Sli or not to sli

[jhengst1962]

Hello,
With BF3 and COD/MW4 come, would it be wise to add another GTX560 Ti OC. If so, can I add another mfgr's card?

I am not cramming anything down anyones throat I am merely stating my opnion, something which you have great objection to. You seem to not like other people having an opnion.

Remember it is you who was so ignorant to attack my opninion in the first place, so don't talk about me "insulting" your opnion, hypocrite.

I am entitled to my opnion (as are you) but if you believe that 40 fps is adequate then that is your opinion not "the general consensus" (unless you can provide proof that 40 fps is "the general consensus")

My opinion is 60 fps is optimal. Your assuming that the OP agrees with you, when he hasnt evan responded yet, he might be wanting to max it out with a minimum of 60 fps. We dont evan know what resolution he's going to use, so stop saying that a single GTX 560Ti will be fine because you dont evan know what his expectations are.

I answered his question, two GTX 560 Ti's are better then one, which is a fact. That is what he was asking for, not for people like you to tell him how he should and shouldn't spend his money.

You are ignorant and you assume too much.

The very first thing you said in this thread was:

"Don't listen to the people who are telling you not to SLI, they are probably jealous."

I wasn't attacking your opinion. I was disagreeing with it, as I'm allowed to do, and explain why. What I was attacking was that YOU were insulting anyone who disagrees with you and telling the OP to ignore opinions different from your own. It was rude and inappropriate. You then proceeded to call me a hypocrite apparently because you think it is wrong for me to have or defend my opinion after suggesting that it wasn't appropriate for you to insult and dismiss it to begin with. I'm not and was never forcing my opinion on anyone or insulting anyone for having a different opinion. You keep calling me a hypocrite and fabricating that I'm doing what I complained you were doing when I have done nothing of the sort. I've been stating my view on the OPs question and before you said anything in the thread I specifically told the OP that he should try one card and make up his own mind. I've repeated that that is my advice more than once. There is nothing hypocritical about my comments.
Your statements that two cards are better than one is obvious. No one, including the OP I'm sure, needed you to tell them that. Four GTX 580s in SLI would be even better. He is obviously asking whether or not a second card is a worthwhile purchase and I've been responding to that question with my opinion which is based on rather extensive knowledge of the subject. If you think I'm "ignorant" note the "expert" below my name on the left; it's really not easy to get. I, just like anyone else, should be allowed to state my advice without you being insulting and dismissive. You started out in this thread by being rude and acting like your opinion should be considered fact. When greg said he agreed with me somehow you managed not to accuse him of jealously and stating that he should be ignored. You've also toned down the attitude in general so I guess some of what I've said has gotten through to you. If you could drop your inappropriate initial attitude with me as well I would appreciate it.

Wise decision, I am glad you decided to get another card, you will not be disappointed. Enjoy your new set up mate.

which is based on rather extensive knowledge of the subject

That is debatable. Your "extensive knowledge" leaves a lot to be desired.

note the "expert" below my name on the left; it's really not easy to get.

Its very easy to get, if you have no life. That does not prove you have any knowledge at all, all it proves is that you have too much time on your hands.

If you could drop your inappropriate initial attitude with me as well I would appreciate it.

Respect is earned not given, and I have no respect for you.

As I keep saying you assume too much, you assumed all along the OP would agree with you.

^ Shhh, just had to get the last word didn't you

way to derail a thread buddy

Seeing as the OP has taken my advice and decided to get a second card, that isn't what I would call "derailing" the thread, but thanks for pointless post.

I NEVER assumed to OP would agree with me. You just make up things I didn't do or say and attack me for them because you don't like that I called you out for being rude. That one person agreed with your perspective on video card performance says nothing about our respective knowledge levels on the subject nor the glaring deficiencies in your personality and the way you communicate with those who don't agree with you.
