Thank you, Tom.  I wonder if you could tell me a little more about the settings, specifically?

Thanks,

The competitor to Nvidia is Radeon. However, you may not have a choice 
since SLI is a Nvidia feature whereas Crossfire is a Radeon feature. So 
your motherboard may limit you to only Nvidia PCI Express x16 video cards.

 From reading the consumer reviews on your video card, it is highly 
rated for even high end graphic demands. From that I would suspect the 
OS settings for utilizing the card might actually be causing your angst. 
I would review the card manual recommended settings against the current 
settings to see if that could be the problem.

Your card is more than one day old so there are probably newer/better 
Nvidia cards now available if you want to go that route.

Good luck.

Tom
