Hi guys,
I've just ordered a Sapphire 7970 o/c and am having serious questions if I did the right thing. I need to change the order in about 10 hours if I want to.
I think I might have been better with 2x Sapp 7870 o/c running in CF.
The purpose is to run 3x eyefinity at 1080p.
The 7870s cost 30% more now but I know I won't spend another $500 later on a second 7970, and with the 7970 oc model taking up 3 pci slots they are hard to fit into most mid range Mobo's at 16x/16x. I can fit the 7870s at 16/16 in my current Mobo.
I know the concept of buy the best single card you can afford but I did that with my last graphics card and never got a second....
Will the dual 7870s kick the a£$e of the single 7970 in eyefinity 1080p? I can't find any directly comparable review on Tom's.
Thanks for any quick advice.
Cheers, Daz
