2 8800gts running in sli will be faster than a single 8800gts

the answer will be YES, unless u are comparing two diffrent cards like 2 8800gts' against 1 ati 4870.

also SLI doesn't necessarily mean better frame rates, unless you are playing at high resolutions, then it will.

What is a video card use for?

Well from your question, I'm guessing your a beginner in computers. So I'll tell you what the video cards are used for, what they can do, and where to find the best deals and the best ones. Well First off, video cards (graphics cards) are bought to be put in one's computer and then the computer can run better graphics (how good it looks). The Better the graphics card, the better the graphics. If you want to play games like crisis, half life, or team fortress on high graphics (which are adjustable you should go to tigerdirect.com and get the nvidia 9800, nvidia 260, or 280. So Basically Graphics cards let you play games with picture. Two more things to have these graphics cards and play those games is to have a good enough processor (CPU) and a good Monitor (tv screen). The Processor should be at least lets say, 2.2 or higher, and the monitor for these graphics cards should range from 19 or 20 inch or higher. You can also buy two SLI ready video cards and an SLI ready motherboard which means you can have 2 graphics cards run together then they'll go faster and better than just one but it can be a hassle have 2 graphics cards so just stick with having 1.

You can not convert the RAM that is on the PC to RAM for your graphics card. The only way to get RAM for a graphics card is to buy one that already has RAM on it. The graphics cards that have their own RAM are normally higher end ones that cost about $50-$70 for the cheapest ones.

What computers can use Linux?

Linux has broad support for a wide range of devices and platforms, so there is no single computer that is "best" suited overall. Generally speaking, any motherboard will "work;" ones with Intel processors and chipsets will probably offer the best performance and stability. Intel graphics cards should work out of the box on any distribution; NVIDIA makes excellent (though proprietary) drivers for their cards. It is probably best to avoid ATI cards and graphics. Virtually all Ethernet adapters work; wireless cards from Intel and Linksys usually have drivers available.
