Are you going to use Vista or XP?
Going to use Vista 64. I am using everything that is in my sig, just going to swap motherboards and go SLI.

I suspect it's not either of the cards. But the responsible thing to do is swap the cards and test each one individually to rule out the second card being the source of the SLi issue. But moving around these behemoths is tough on the motherboard and the cards.

I had high hopes that the beta driver release (177.39) yesterday would solve this issue. But I still froze (no error, or BSOD, just hard lock-up) in LotRO within a couple hours while zoning.

Just sharing. Single-card performance isn't too bad. But I just hope the source of the problem isn't my hardware (cards or mboard).
I also have a LOTRO account and will try it out when I get the rig rebuilt. I have found the LOTRO client to be quite picky in DX10 mode before.
