Just a question... What motherboard and CPU you using?
I just upgraded from a 939 socket AMD 3800+ single core. To a Q6600. And in games like CSS and LoTRO have noticed a FPS jump 2x at least. And this is comparing with my old system 2x 7900GT and new system has only one(dom is borrowing the other).

My Motherboards a Gigabyte GA-M55SLI-S4 with a AMD Dual-core 5600+

Nothing, dual 8800GTS' would more often then not always be faster then even an Ultra.
But SLI is a bit funny because some games you might not see an improvement at all.
For a bit more then $300 you can get a new 8800GT and be happy with single card goodness.
Simple fact is.. those 8800gts cards are quickly becoming obsolete.

There are some retailers that do have 8800GT's in stock, just be prepared to get a non permium brand (IE Galaxy or Sparkle) for an inflated price.
IMHO, just wait for the G92 revsion of the 8800GTS.

galaxy won't stay in stock either, anyone who says they have them are probably lying. i assume its the same for sparkle. NO manufacturer is able to meet demand. as for the 'inflated price', it went up across the board.

see, what you dont know, is that i can see exactly how many of those inno cards umart has purchased, and exactly how many they have on back order. now i'm not going to cross the line and divulge that information, but i stand by my earlier statement of good luck getting one. i'm not going to say you definitely, will not, can not possibly find any, but you'd be lucky to do so.

Surely you arent saying that you definitely, will not, can not possibly find any way to understand that but and that you aren't lucky enough to do so.
