Hey I just ordered my desktop with the GTX 260 + a Corsair 650W PSU.  In the future, if I wanted to get another 260, do you think the 650W is enough for both?  Also, would you bother getting another card or just wait awhile and get another one to replace it.  I ordered the nForce 680i LT SLI MOBO and I assume it will be fine with two 260's but would I need to upgrade the PSU if I decided to go that way?  Thanks.

Yes, the Corsair 650W is able to power SLI GTX 260.

Replacing cards is always better than adding another as next generation cards usually double in performance. Some examples are going from Geforce 7 to Geforce 8 or Radeon 3870 to Radeon 4870.
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star.

Cool.  DS doesn't sell the XFX GTX 260 Black Edition does it?
