Options- new GPU vs Crossfire... POLL!

[cowboydude99]

Hi,
I recently got some advise on crossfire vs single gpu.

If I do crossfire, I need a new PSU, which will cost me about $150.
I would need a new board - ASRock z77 Extreme 4 = $125
2nd GPU - 7970 = $280

Total $555

If I just purchase a new 7990, it will cost me $580.

What would you do?

I'd wait a week or 2 and check out the pricing of the R9 290X. It's rumored to beat a Titan at around $600.
I know the 7990 is similar but of heard of noise/heat/driver problems with it since it is a dual GPU card.

I plan to wait IF I go the single card route.
