Hi!
I currently have a I5-750 and a XFX 5850. My power supply is a seasonic X-650.
I will be playing the BF3 and StarWars the Old Republic on this PC.
My monitor resolution is currently at 1680x1050 but I'll move to my HDTV soon or upgrade my monitor to 1080P.
My motherboard is x16 or x8/x8 so i'm considering crossfire.
Right now, I have the opportunity to buy a second 5850 for around 100-120$.
Would a 5850 "future-proof" my system for these 2 games at least ( if that exist ), not help because it's already sufficient or not be enough?
I could also later buy a 6950/6970/570/580 but I would not be able to crossfire these with my current PSU.
So I'm really thinking this might be a good buy for me and let me use that computer for one more year without hassle.
I OC but only just a little my gpu, and I put my i5-750 at 2.8Ghz.
