I personally would not bother with crossfiring untill you have a 1920x1200 that is full HD and has a response rate equal to or lower than 5ms (personal preference). Of course if you are planning on crossfiring in the future remember that your PSU possibly may not be powerfull enough to handle x2 Radeon HD6870's. Other than that you're all good :)

or a 1920x1080. which is better? does 145€ more euros worth?
1920x1080=120€
1920x1200=about 265€


If you're going for 24" or more I would go for the 1920x1200 otherwise the 1920x1080 will work just fine. There will be black bars on the top/bottom when you play movies or do other productivity applications for the 1920x1200.

I am planning to crossfire in the future. I dont know when. Actually i changed it a bit. I will go for a GS800 800w to be sure. I will see in the future if I go with a higher resolution. I like my current.

Then I will go for a 1920x1080 if i change monitor. i am not sure if I want to. My current resolution is good, I think.
