time for upgrade
but since i have been bitcoin mining i could double my rate by buying one, (if i keep my current cards for 2 and 3, (non crossfired))
ive been considering dumping crossfire for compatibility reasons, and i would like to just get 1 7970 for gaming, and then keep both 5850s i already have for mining during non usage in slots 2 and 3.
would a $400 7970 1100Mhz be a horrible idea? saw a triple fanned gigabyte that caught my eye.
any glaring shortcomings based on my current hardware would be appreciated
