No permormance increase with 9800gt SLI
My system is as follows
Dell XPS 630i
E8400
6GB Ram
Ok so when i bought the computer it only came with one 9800gt, so i bought another XFX 9800gt both with the same memory and speeds. I attached the sli bridge and enabled sli in the nvidia control panel. In every game i have tried (Crysis, Crysis Warhead, Call of Duty 4, and Far Cry 2) there is no performance increase. I have the newest drivers (180.48) and i have tried each card separately, and they both work perfectly. What can i do?

yeah you are definitely doing something wrong. I have seen at least 10frame increase in crysis with sli enabled. I have dual 9800gt in my 630 and there is a noticeable increase in performance.
One thing i do suggest is that you overclock you CPU. Not sure what the stock speed of the E8400 is but it could be bottlenecking the video.
Also, i like to use nhancer to load profiles for games. These are usually optimized settings vs. what the nvidia drivers load.
