Hi,
I already have one Asus EAH6970 and planning to buy another 6970 (might be some other brand like sapphire).
My CPU is Phenom II X6 1090T (overclocked to 3.8GHz and CPU-NB to 2.6GHz), Motherboard is GA-990FXA-UD3, RAM is (4x2GB) DDR3 1600 CL7 and PSU is Thermaltake XT 775W (look at my signature for full system configuation). At the moment I have 24-inch 1080p/60Hz monitor and don't have plans to upgrade it anytime soon.
I like to play games with maximum details and settings possible (I don't care much about high fps like I am happy in playing with 35+ fps but getting more frames per second is ideal).
Now I have some questions:
-- Is it worth to buy another 6970 and do crossfire ? Especially for single monitor 1080p/60Hz ?
-- If I add another one then will my CPU @ 3.8GHz become bottleneck ?
-- If I go with another one then can I say that I will be good for next 2-years or more from GPU power point-of-view ?
Thanks in advance
