[QUOTE=anklyne;16432334]All I see is one person said it wouldn't and everyone else talking about GPUs. Have you even tried connecting the TV? I haven't tried it myself, but I'm very tempted to go do it now. If only I had a TV close enough :raise:[/QUOTE] That one person knows what he's talking about though. And yeah I tried anyway, but it didn't work. Display configuration only lets two inputs run at the same time.

I still might try SLI just for the upgrade itself. But I would rather find another card that isn't too expensive but is better than 9800gtx+ in SLI In your opinions, what should I upgrade right now? 9800gtx+ 1GB E8400 @ 4.0GHz 2x2 Corsair DDR2 800MHz RAM BFG 550 Watt PSU N7AD-SLI motherboard from ASrock Personally I think I should go for a new CPU.

If you tried it and it didn't work, why the hell did you come here and ask whether it would work?
"Video wire the card came with." Do you mean the S-Video cable?

[QUOTE=lil JJ;16432665]Yeah, I had a mental block. Ha.[/QUOTE] Perfectly fine. I've never actually tried to use it. I've heard that it's sluggish and really not the way to go but if you absolutely need it, it'll do the trick.
