HD4870 + HD4870x2 crossfire. Hi guys Would this setup work? are there any benchmarks?? i already have a HD4870 card and was wondering when i upgrade, if the extra HD4870x2 would make a difference?? Cheers guys. Hi guys Would this setup work? are there...

a nice day in looking around 4870x2 way to go. Heya, $119 for an HD4850 at NewEgg. $500 for an HD4870x2 (don't know where that $379 number above came from for the HD4870x2, it's $500). Even Crossfired, the HD4850's are about half the cost of an HD4870x2....

reviews/video/ati/R700/crysis.jpg If you look closely you'll see that Crossfire actually hurts performance at 1280x1024 in Crysis :??: If i do CF with a HD4870 and a HD4870X2 will i get really good performance? Cus im not sure the HD4870X2 might lower...

xp professional 32 bit OS same probblem in both. 1) There is no such thing as an HD4970 (I assume you meant the HD4870) 2) According to ATI's , you can only crossfire an HD4870 with another HD4870 or an HD4870x2. You can only crossfire an HD4670 with another...

superclocked. I ended up convinced that it wasn't time to upgrade yet. The performance increase you get from HD4870 or HD4870x2 or GTX280 aren't enough to justify their costs. My 8800GT still serves me pretty well at 1920*1200 (not Crysis, but I don't care),...

fixed and now there are still some problems in some of the titles being tested on. ATI is delaying is launch for just that reason, wo work on the drivers, the hardware is ready. so when will the hd4870 and hd4870x2 be out? 4870 is up for graba, who knows, the...

but does it justify the $300 difference to a single hd4870, a more expensive x48 motherboard, and a higher PSU? I'm about to order a Q9550, hd4870, p45 mobo, and 8gb of ram system and not sure if I should switch to a 4870x2. Thanks.. After reading a little...

realized. As per dirtmountain, I had the card combo incorrect. A HD4870x2 and a HD4870 run in a crossfire configuration will be a about 400w just for the cards alone. Check your system with this it doesn't have the HD4870x2 in it's data base yet, but...
