Now, I know this may seem like a stupid question... especially with Crossfire versus a single card. But I've seen some instances where one card can beat out SLI or Xfire.
Both will cost about the same, with 369$ for a GTX 285 and 378 for 2x4870 in Xfire.
I play mostly FPS (COD4, TF2 and the like) with some MMOs and such thrown in. Which setup would be best? Is the performance between 4870's in xfire that much better than 4850's in Xfire, or should I go with the cheaper solution (4850's).
Currently running a Q6600 at 3.3Ghz on air, so I'm not sure if I'll run into a bottleneck or not for dual cards.
Any help would be appreciated .
