I need to bug everyone again.  Putting the finishing touches on my i7 system.  Holly smokes now over 5 large.
 
I just can't see much of a difference between them.  Could save a couple of hundred with the 260 sli.  Will be using 24" display.  Gamer unit.

The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star.

Woah really?  Even in a Triple SLI the 260 216 is better than 280?

If you're talking about price:performance ratio then I'd understand.

The 216 is just a few FPS behind the 280 in most benchmarks. With a little overclocking it and top it.
