I'm thinking about going crossfire at this point as I'm probably going to go eyefinity sometime soon.
My question is, there is a Shell Shocker deal going on on newegg right now that is selling a 5870 2g eyefinity 6 for $179.99 (after rebate) + free shipping and the cheapest 5850 1gb is for 176.99 + 4.99 for shipping = 181.98.
I know that 5850+5870 is actually worse than 5850 CF by usually around 2fps but as this 5870 I mentioned has 2gb would that make any difference in performance going crossfire and eyefinity? 5870 2gb + 5850 1gb or 5850 CF?
(I already have a 5850.)
I need an answer as soon as possible as it's a shell shocker limited time deal.
I'm pretty sure it can handle it, but just to make sure, can my Antec Earthwatts EA750 handle this setup??
Thank you!
