On my machine, I have a 6400+be with two 2900xt's in crossfire. right now I am getting 80-90 constant with all high setting on cod4 at 1920 x 1200. I do suffer a little microstutter and will be the main reason to upgrade if I do. Is there anyone in here that went from two 2900's to a 4870... If so, please give me your impression.
 
geez, dude i can tell you with a lot of confidence that one HD4870 would blow those 2900s away anytime!!!! so go for it!!! :)
 
Go with a GTX 260 or 4870...no more microstutter! I don't see how anyone can stand SLI/Xfire b/c of microstutter

From what I understand, the microstutter problem is a thing of the past. As for the gtx 260 vs the 4870, I will go with the 4870 because I already have a m2rmvp board that supports crossfire. Besides, nvidia's chipsets have a lot of problems and cost more. I plan to upgrade in a few weeks, but right now I will not be at home for a while. Most of my gaming for the next few weeks will be on my FX laptop.
 
microstutter isn't a thing of the past. It's the future of SLI/Xfire unless they change the architecture
 
I am talking about visually. People on here have not really seen any microstutter out of these new cards. As far as that goes, I will going the cf route anyways... No since in buying another mobo.
