I have one HD 7950 right now and I have a $500 upgrade budget and all these solutions except to HD 7950 crossfire cost about $500. I know Crossfire has microstutter issues and that going SLI would mean more heat and such, but I'm not really that concerned since it will be in a Corsair Air 540 case (Hint:Great airflow) AAnyway, The Sli 760 will get me the most performance I'm thinking but what do you guys think?

As anas hints at, as long as you are gaming on a single monitor and playing recent/dx11 games you can safely go cf 7950. AMD has said the fix for eyefinity and dx9 is coming so I'd go cf 7950 anyways. It would be cheapest and still quite fast.

Hey guys thanks for the answer! I was going to go SLI but you guys convinced me not. I appreciate the responses. I know you've seen questions like these but I couldn't find one that already had a 7950. BTW I'm on a single 1080p monitor.

I am pretty sure the 7950 can easily [almost] max out [almost] all games on a 1080p. Try overclocking for a bit more juice :)
