So, I'm planning to upgrade to either a GTX580 or 2 6870's in CF...and I'm not really sure which to choose. If I go with the 6870's, I'm going to have to get a new motherboard, and a new PSU. If I go with the GTX 580 I'm only going to have to get a new PSU, but as it costs $100 more it'll end up costing the same amount.
I've ran a crossfire setup, so I'm not really sure what to expect. I know the 2 6870's would probably be a little more powerful, but I've heard that they may not have the best minimum fps? :/ And I also know that a lot of people prefer running with a single card. If you could help me with my decision that would be great
Computer spec:
AMD 965 @ 3.4ghz
4gb DDR3
ATI 5870
700 watt powersupply (A very very cheap one :/)
The monitor I use right now is 1600x1050, but I plan on getting another 1920x1080 monitor before I head to college.
