Which is better?
im not worried about price,
i just want to know people opinions on the matter?
a radeon 6970? OR 2x radeon 6850 in crossfire?
 
Solution


the 6850 xfire is more powerful. Do you have a 6850 already, if not, it may be worth getting a 6970 and xfiring that later down the line.

Currently i have a 5770 :S
its good for its price, but not good for high end gaming (e.g. crysis max settings, etc)

so ill probably go for a HD6970 :D
