Throw that 5970's out right now and put 780 in. Do it now!

The 5970 is ancient and even in sli will be less than half as powerful as a 780 and have less vram. Chuck them in the rubbish bin.

I know this thread is probably (almost) dead, but it is Crossfire with AMD cards (5970), not Sli, which is a Nvidia card, And the 5970 will be much less than half as good, much much less.
But yes, 780 all the way, all day.
