I have been contemplating putting 4870 1gb crossfire in my upcoming i7 build. I have two questions in regards to this.
First would my OCZ GameXstream 700w psu handle a i7 with a moderate oc 3.2-3.6 and crossfire 4870's.
Second My current card is my awesome 8800GTX but it is aging especially when playing Arma 2. Would 4870 Crossfire provide the boost i am expecting?
I know the next gen are slated for release late this year. But after going so long with the 8800gtx i found that i enjoy having new technology to play with and tweak that i can replace every year or so, more than having the newest 650$ graphics card. So i really don't plan on upgrading to the next gen until the prices begin to fall.
