I already own a 6870 looking to upgrade.

On Tuesday I'll have 16mb ram and a Amd 1090t(witch I plan to overclock w/ an Antec 20)

I can get another brand new 6870 for $160

I am looking to play SWTOR with this system with as much eye candy as possible on a Hans-G HZ281HPB 28" 1920 x 1200
monitor (also coming in Tuesday.

EDIT: ya i completely read your thread wrong the first time, did you originally say that you had 2 gpus?

Ya, i would upgrade to crossfire in those, that's what i have and those things scale like nothing else in crossfire. Crossfire 6870s benchmark better then a 6970.
SO unless your plan on upgrading again soon to 2 6970s theres no reason to go up. Certainly no reason to go to a 6950.
But you should be fine with what you had for SWTOR.

I figured crossfire would be the way to go. I just needed a little bit of positive reinforcement


Thanks
 
im actually wanting to go the opposite way. Sell my 2 6850's and get a 6950 and unlock it or a GTX 580. Too much of "this game doesnt support crossfire" shit.
