Bottlenecking SLI 7900GTs???

Hey, I was thinking about getting a second 7900GT to run in SLI with my current one sometime down the road, but I was wondering if my processor would bottleneck them. It%26#39;s an X2 4200+ overclocked to 2.3GHz (speed of the 4400+). So, is it worth getting the second 7900GT to run in SLI, or would it be hindered by my processor? Thanks. Full specs in sig.

SLI is terrible. Me and my friends buy sli motherboards for bonfires and pooper scoopers. The performance gains aren%26#39;t enough to justify cost, and one good card outperforms two decent ones.Bottlenecking SLI 7900GTs???

To the OP, I would save the money and get a 8800 series card myself. 
Nope, it won%26#39;t bottleneck, but a single 8800GTS will easily outperform dual 7900GTs. Heck, the factory overclocked 640MB versions of the 8800GTS can usually outperform dual 7900GTXs.Saving your money %26#39;till you can get an 8800GTS would be a much better decision, IMHO.
