I'm not sure if anyone has had a chance to properly compare the two yet, but I'm in the market for a new card. The goal is simple:
Either get a new Sapphire 7970 3gb to run in crossfire
Sell the one I have for a 6gb version (and eventually, like a few months from now, get a second)
or grab a 3gb GTX 780.
The main thing I do with them is game (preferably on Ultra when possible) so I'm trying to increase my FPS when gaming. I know with skyrim my vram gets pretty close to maxing out and prone to ctds, so I was wondering if getting xfire would solve this or am I better off just grabbing the 6gb 7970? I know vram doesn't stack in xfire (but it'd be awesome if it did).
