currently my build consists of:
i7 930@4.2ghz
rampage ii extreme
12gb ddr3 1600
2xgtx 480 super clocked
because my power bills are atrocious im thinking of selling my cpu and mobo and buying a 2500k with a z68 and crossfire 6870(or should i keep my 480's?)
i game at 5760x1080 but if the power savings are big enough im fine to go down to 1920 but i will still need to have triple monitor support for my work
would the upgade be worth it and would i notice bottlenecks and would the system be slower?
also i see that sandy bridge can only offer x8,x8 crossfire/sli, would that be a problem?
