SO...
Due to my sheer frustration in waiting for ATI to "fix" the whole Trifire+Eyefinity fiasco, I am SERIOUSLY considering selling my 5970 and picking up two 5870 2GBs instead. (the most raw horsepower with 2 GPUs I can get...)
I can't seem to find any actual comparisons/benches between the two, but it seems with the additional RAM and higher clocks it would yield the best performance in a 2 GPU solution for Eyefinity. (I could REALLY use the added GPU power with BC2, AVP, Metro 2033, etc)
Any experiences, anyone? (my only other option is of course to ditch Eyefinity, and go "green", but am quite hooked on the immersion of the 3 screens, and don't know how long it will be before "N" gets their surround thing going).
