Well, one of them will, a pair won't function in crossfire though.

Subject: Re: [H] One of two 8800 GTS (SLI) on the fritz.. next move?
the GTS512 is actually faster than the GTS640 (it's a 128 shader
part with higher clockspeeds, compared to the 96 shader... 500Mhz?
of the GTS320/640)
ATI's 5870's should be dropping in two or three weeks, so I'd
recommend waiting to see what that can do before spending any money.

I had two EVGA e-Geforce 8800GTS running in SLI and one went bad,
I think the RAM may have overheated. So I pulled out the bad one
and am now running with just one 8800 GTS. So far it is fine
for my purposes, but I've been out of the video-card market for
almost 3 years and am wondering what the next move should be. I
plan to contact EVGA and see if by any chance it is under
warranty, I heard that it is possible that they may replace it
although I don't know yet for sure.
I have an EVGA nForce 680i board and am running Win XP.
I see a similar card available at Amazon but it looks different
than mine, probably a newer version. Anyway it's $89.99 so even
if I buy two of them, for $180 I could run two new 8800s in SLI.
edit: I see it's the 512MB version of the card. nevermind..
e-GeForce 8800 GTS P/N 640-P2-N821-AR serial 6088212000644
640MB PCI-E
What do you folks recommend, is 8800 GTS old tech now, is there
something else much better for about the same price that would
work for PCI-E?
