Hey guys, I'm looking for some advice on what to do with my CF 7850s. Basically, the heat/noise of this set up really bothers me. Not to mention the driver issues and micro stutter that occasionally pop up. So now I'm thinking about selling them and picking up a 770 or 7970. I'm currently on a 1080p display but thinking about moving up to 1440p at some point down the line. What would you guys do? Thanks!

I'm not switching, at least not yet...the HD7970 is still bitmining, which is not something nVidia cards can do worth squat. A new HD7970 bought today would not (read the recent article on Bitcoins), but by the time I stop later this summer, it is possible this one will have just managed to pay for itself.
If your kWhs are cheap then you may as well! I did read that article. Knew most of it already, but very enjoyable read all the same. Presenting the information in story form makes it far more entertaining to read than textbook-style.
