5750 crossfire or 5850?
(about speed and power consumption)

 

[Rustyy117]

5850 is the obvious choice, less power consumption, roughly the same performance, No scaling issues, less heat.....

Just make sure you have a 500W quality power supply or better. And that the rest of your system is fairly up to date.

+1 5850

 

[Derbixrace]

+1000000^^Agreed

 

[N.Broekhuijsen]

+1 for 5850 indeed.

you can always CF later if you need to

 

[ben10_85]

+1 5850, by this time you know this right?

 

[OvrClkr]

I would wait for the 5830 and later on CF.

If this is not an option then a single 5850 should be the best option...

5850...cheap and can run anything at 1920x1080 smoothly except for maybe crysis (coming from a sapphire 5850 owner)

 

[bhagat666]

5850 definately
