    well it is possible, but all the cards that had this feature were something like 10 years old... kinda pointless you know...

    ohh and another way to get mroe vRam is to go SLI.

    also after reading a bit I think you can upgrae the vram on low end PPC macs. go up form 32mb vRam to a whopping 64mb!!!

    No... get a new video card, or if you have an SLi compatible mobo and PSU, then get another 6600GT.

    a single 7800GT would outperform two in SLi, use less energy and have more technologies while being cheaper than buying two.

    Never said it was the best option, just that it was one.

    And the eVGA 6600GT PCIe is $135 on NewEgg... Good luck finding a 7800GT for $270.
