I have a dual monitor setup - I run most games in 1920x1080 on monitor one and leave open monitor 2 (for vent and web and stuff).

is it worth it to run a second 5870? My current system specs are

i7 930 oc'ed to 4.2 ghz
12 gb 1600 mhz ddr3
1 patriot ssd 128 gb os

1.2 GB raid 0 data

dual 23" asus monitors 1920x1080

i know I can run eye finity but most games I play are center view orientated so that 1/2 " of beizel sucks...
 
I vote, get another 23in and the 2nd 5870 for some Eyefinity action without the bezel right in the center of your screen
 
Nah I wouldn't do it. Are you having fps issues with games atm? If so which ones?
 
Are you not satisfied with your performance? IMO, unless you want more performance or get a third monitor, then it's not at all worth it to get a second card.
