what resolution and how many monitors are you playing on? because for single monitor 1080p resolution, you won't get a noticeable effect from upgrading from two 6870s

not too familiar with that size, but considering it's not THAT much bigger than a 1920x1080, I still don't think you'll see a large improvement in preformance... if you can find a gtx 580 for a good price, it should do everything you need and solve your micro-stuttering problem. of course, if you have the cash, by all means go for the 680 if you can find one :)

yup either get a 680 GTX if u can get it. or a 7970 for $400-450 (price drop will be soonish)

they will remove your Micro stutter which is cause by X-Fire mid to low end graphics cards.

you will not see major increase in performance however, just the removal of microstutter.

+1^

but also remember everything's going to depend on your monitor's refresh-rate and your own perception... with a 60hz refresh rate (fairly standard), any fps gain above 60 are essentially meaningless except for benchmarking purposes.

but yes, the micro-stutter will at least go away!
