weremonkey got it exactly. Plus, at the time I got into SLI, I bought two of the second best video card on the market (6800s) before there were 7800 series, and in benchmarking, my two cards together beat the #1 card at the time. Additionally, there is advanced rendering modes like SLI AA 8 / 16 and these cut back your Frames Per Second to almost 50% that what you would normally have if you applied no antialaising or anistrophic filtering - meaning you can dual up two of the best cards on the market and toss in near perfect rendering and play it smoothly.
