SLi enabled, or disabled.

Just got this new PC up and running. It's my first time using SLi too. Just wondering if I should always leave it enabled, or only enable it when I play games. As most of you who use SLi know that you have to enable it in the Nvidia Control Panel if you want better graphics in-game. Would leaving it enabled always do any harm? Or only when I play games. Need your thoughts on this. I'm using two 9800GTX.

Hey Joshes,

SLI mode should always give better performance when its turned on and you can use it 24/7 & 365 days of the year ;)
