Obviously i'm using this card for 3D and video editing work i am currently involved in. But as far as gaming side of things go, would it be possible to use this card with two gaming cards in 3-way SLI? Say... two EVGA 470's or 480's? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Well with regards to the GPU set up you are going to do, I have also using a quadro FX card, I use it for solidworks, I am a currently studying to become a solidworks engineer, I have used a Quadro FX 4600 before then changed over to a GTX 260 and the performance when doing 3d drawing and animations is the same if not better, if you have a old quadro then the newer gaming cards will outperform the quadro's when doing 3d work, but I have also run a gaming card and a quadro in one system (To see if it can be done), it worked great, you will need a monitor that can change between sources (because you will need to display cables) and then all you do is change the source in the nvidia control panel when you want to use each card, don't thing running SLI on two gaming cards and having a quadro in the system will be a problem (Tried and tested with one gaming and one quadro).

hope this helps
