I know people are going to really disagree with me. But The GTX 275 is by far the best option.
Let me lay it out for you:
Advantages of two 4770's:
-Higher Frames in most Games (although doesn't really make a difference at 1680x1050)
-New smaller die
-Higher Overclocks
-Bragging Rights (two gpu's)
Disavatages of two 4770's:
-Not so great at folding
-Need for expensive motherboard to run properly.
-Not all games support crossfire.
-More Complications with drivers, ect.
-Lesser resale value
-Very limited upgrade support.
-More heat in case and more power hungry.
-No clear advantage over GTX 275 at 1650x1050
Advantages of One GTX 275:
-Excellent Folder
-Very few Driver Complications.
-Great Resale value
-Don't need motherboard that supports dual cards.
-Well perform much better in games that don't support multi gpu's
-You well not notice frame difference between Two 4770's and one gtx 275 at 1680x1050
-Looks Real Nice in the Case
-Great for video encoding
Disavatages of One GTx 275
-Only dx10 not dx10.1
-Not new 40mm die size
-Not two gpu's
-Does not overclock quite as high as a 4770
-Big card
So in my opinion a single card solution as a gtx 275 is by far, and yes by far the best option for El_Mayo.
Case Closed :lol:
