Hello there,
my 1st post here, and ive got a question for you gurus around..
I've read the sticky about SLi vs CrossFire, but am still not quite sure which way to head, and what specific cards I should aim for.
Am building a new rig with a Core i7 920 which means new mobo and new RAM..
I still havent decided which motherboard am going for, but probably one that is able to run Quad Crossfire/Tri-SLI.
The problem am facing though, am not quite sure which cards to aim for.
I was thinking of 2x ATI Radeon 4870 for first, but then I was wondering whether 3 SLI (lets say 3 Nvidia 250) would be a better choice. The price for the 2 is quite similar, so am wondering which is the best choice.
Or if any other card combination is better around that price range.
Also am looking into the fact that the ATI cards support DX10.1 whereas the NVidia ones support DX10 only, and am pretty sure that the DX10 will go popular once W7 is out and XP starts to fade away
Thanks alot for your contribution
