Are they good? I mean, are the benifits worth the cost? Do high-end new games utilize the two cards?

 

[Sonata]

imo, yes they are good if you have the money
well it depends, if your really into the high quality graphics and u have the money then dual video cards is fine but i reakon 1 is enough
and yes high end games do utilise the two cards

Why bother? You might as well get a desktop.

power consumption of SLI video cards mean shorter battery life.
Impractical really; unless you have it plugged into the socket 24/7 .. and even then; why not just get a desktop?

desktop all the way... but it still even dual GPUs is useless unless you will be doing high end gaming... you can go triple to if you have the cash...
= crisis on very high graphics with no lag
