Hi, I currently have a problem with my graphic card (XFX HD 6970 1GB GDDR5) and I think it started with playing SC2.
I started to notice few pixels going wrong on the screen when playing SC2, and now it's all messed up there with SC2, and it seems
like anything I need high specs would have disply problem with the pixels. Like a broken mirror. This problem does not happen when it's doing simple functions like word, or play video, or nothing with 3D specs I guess. Tried Driver update, did not fix it.
So, I think I will be trying to get warranty on it since I got it on August. But all that aside, I have no video with my motherboard, and I will be in great trouble while it's away for service, if I can get it at all. So my quesiton is should I go for HD 6870, so that I could use my computer and sort of upgrade my video for the time being? and then if the warranty attempt fails, just stick to it, but if it does work, crossfire with HD 6790? Would that be even feasible?
Can you tell me if it works, how it can be done, and if they need anything extra to make it work? Seems like I heard something about need for external bridge. How much would that cost?
Thanky you so much, and I really need help! QQ
