FarCry is not tough enough to separate the GeForce 8800GTX and 8800GTS in SLI, but as resolution drives up the SLI set up is just a hair quicker. In reality, both setups perform very close to each other and are thus practically identical from a performance standpoint.

Is there any doubt which videocard setup is fastest here? As PCSTATS dialed up the resolution to 1600x1200, and the eye candy to SM3, the SLI GeForce 8800GTS 320MB SLI combo leaves the lone Geforce 8800GTX MSI NX8800GTX-T2D768E in the dust!
