I really would like to know if three 6970s are faster than the 6990 + 6970 setup as I cant find any benchmarks comparing the two. I know that the 6990 + 6970 is blazing but I was hoping to get input on three 6970s because I had read the three cards in tri fire lose some power, does the 6990 a single card (with 2 gpus) + 6970 circumvent the tri fire thing or is what I read about the third card in tri fire not adding much perfomance wrong? and once again if anybody has first hand experience with two 6970 vs the 6990 would you please tell me which 1 ran smoother with less problems as I heard cross fire did have problems,I would be willing to give up a little performance for reliability. Oh i forgot to mention that I will be running three monitors. I just want to get the most for my 1000 plus dollars. Thanks.
