Hey folks. Looking for some advice. First Specs:
CPU Q9300 OC to 3.0 recently (stable)
MOBO ASUS Maximus Formula
Graphics Card as above recently overclocked to 950/1310 (autotune)
Windows 7 Ultimate 64x
22 inch WS at 1680 x 1050.
Currently play mostly TF2, CoD BO, Dragon Age, Red Orchestra 2 etc.
I just pre-ordered BF 3 and will be getting MW 3 as well. So wanting to upgrade GPU. The plan months ago was to X-fire with another 5770/6770 but now think I should just go with one card...perhaps something like Radeon HD 6950 or even just Radeon HD 6870. I believe one 6870 is comparable to two 5770 in x-fire. Is 6950 overkill for my CPU/resolution?
Peace
MM
