I'm sorry if this has been covered already . . . but . . .
I have the system in my signature with 2x Diamond 4870x2's in CrossFireX. To be honest, I certainly don't need all that video processing power since my gaming time has become pretty much nonexistent. But you know how it is, I just want to be able to play whatever game currently out at the best possible settings on my 30" LCD when I do get a chance to game.
The 4870x2's in CFX seem decent but they're crazy hot even at idle. I've been reading around the net to get a comparison between the 4870x2's vs. the GTX 295's.
Well, The Man in Brown brought me 2x EVGA GTX 295's this afternoon - the result of an impulse buy. I'm just wondering if I should just rip open the boxes and put them in or stick with the 4870x2's???
What would YOU do if you had the choice . . . and why?
Thx!
