Hey guys! In researching what I should upgrade for my current gaming rig, I've come up with 2 solutions.

Adding a second HD7850 GPU in crossfire.
Purchasing an HD7970.

Purchasing an HD7850 fits much more nicely into the budget at this point, but I dont know much about crossfire.

My board is a Gigabyte AM3+ GA-970A-UD3

Still new at all this, looking for educated opinions from those who know more than I! Thanks in adavance.

Buying one superior card is better than running 2 in xfire, but if you cant swing a bigger card, xfire is always a good option..

The 7970 because your board is pcie 16x and pcie 4x so I'd go for the single card. As the 4x slot can throttle the cards speed
