Hi, I've recently bought a HD 5850, and was thinking of getting another HD 5850 and a new motherboard(currently on single PCI-E port board) and set up CF. My old GTX280 is fried, so I'll get money in return, so it's basicly a "free" upgrade. Will 2x HD 5850's get bottlenecked by my E8400@4.0ghz? Would it be better for me to buy a P55 motherboard and an i5?
Either way I'll need a new motherboard, and a P55 with 2x PCI-E ports will last me longer than a new x48.
