Would airflow really be impacted? You have an 890FX board with decent spacing between the PCIe slots, and a modern case. Given that the 460's don't run too hot, I don't foresee any terrible issues. But you know your system better than I do.

If you get the 6950, you'll likely need to buy a second one anyway.

What resolution is your TV?

Personally, I believe it's best to buy a second GTX 460 for SLI, invest in two higher resolution monitors, and run them in tandem with your TV. You should come out ahead, that way. Here's one on eBay.

Thanks for the help, but I already bought the other one, and the airflow in my pc is because the powersupply is on the bottom blowing up, while vid card blows down, i have to use to back blowers to get the air out.

EDIT: also any dual cards, and new case, psu, and moniters will have to be later, time to start saving up for a car so I wont be able to invest into my pc untill basically all the new shit comes out (vid cards, ram etc) Smile
