How much better will a gtx 670 perform compared to crossfire 7850. Right now I have a 7850. WIll it be better to buy another 7850 now, save 150 or sell my 7850 and buy a gtx 670 however have to wait 2 weeks and spend more money. Ill be playing games such as bf3 whilst recording (fraps)

At 1920x1200 a 7850 gets around 40 fps and a 670 around 65. I imagine if you crossfire it wont be getting more than 70ish. So its probably better to sell the 7850 and upgrade to a 670. Single card solutions are always better than dual card because they give you much less of a headache

Depending on the resolution, assuming you will play at 1920x1080 here's a benchmark on a regular non brand GTX 670:

The difference is over 20 FPS. With fraps you may get about 5-10 frames lower.
