Been posting here trying to help folks for a few months, been a reader for a long time. Come to the point where im thinking thru a few things. I can either:
A. Upgrade to an Intel platform. 2500k with a z68 PCI-E 3.0 xfire combo
or
B. Buy 2 19 inch monitors to stick next to my 28 incher in portrait mode for Eyefinity.
So, I ask, Which do you think id get the most bang for my buck. My comp specs are in my sig and im happy with what im getting performance wise, however I want to be bowled over if im going Intel. Or blown away by more real esate on my table top.
Not looking for fanbois, I want either solid evidence of the performance increase id gain, so many places with benchmarks its like a whirlwind sometimes. If I start getting fanboi responses just gonna start calling ya all f'in tools and shut up. This isnt a debate of AMD vs Intel or AMD vs Nvidia, cause well 7970s in crossfire is orgasmic. Simply looking for Vet opinions or people with similiar setups to give some insight and what not. Thanx in advance, I hope.
