Last response: in Graphics & Displays
Looking to purchase Two Video cards, I'm wondering if maybe two 6870's will do or should I get two 6950's .. Not wanting to completely overkill.

^agree.
Having 2 really fast cards is big overkill for your gaming needs.Unless your playing games like crysis or crysis 2 and must have every setting maxed out,then theirs no reason you should need x2 6950's.
On a side note,if you are running dual monitors or an eyefinity setup, getting a 69xx series card will be very helpfuly and boost performance because of the 2G of RAM.
Could you list some games your intedning to play?
