Hi guys, I built this rig in august of 09 (in signature) and it's still a kickass build in my opinion, but I am in need of the glorious 60fps stable in every game I play.
I currently play BF3 and Skyrim for now.
Anyways on to business, I have a XFX HD 5870 and considering crossfire for more proformance in games.
I can snag a 5870 on ebay for around $180-200. My only concern with crossfire is the bad things I hear about it, stuttering in games, more heat, etc.
I have around a $250 budget max, less if I have too. Would I be better of with selling my 5870 and buying a GTX 580? When the 7970 finally drops I'm especting prices to drop on other cards and just looking to get some opinions.
I game on a 24 inch monitor @ 1920x1080p fyi.
All posts are appreciated.
