If you play games, watch 3d movies... etc, then use SLI, if not, one is enough.

2 7600's will be better if you don't have the zords to pick up a new card.
Even a 4770 or a 5670 for that matter would be a better choice.

Yeah, but if he doesnt want to buy anything new, and just wants us to tell him is 2 better than one, are there any cons, etc. I would just have to repeat. Use SLI, if you game. Dont if you dont.
