Currently I have a MSI 6850 Cyclone Power edition, and I was thinking about crossfiring it.
After doing more research I have heard problems with Xfire, i.e stuttering, some games don't scale well, not all games support Xfire.
So on the other hand I've been considering just selling off my 6850 to a friend and buying a 6950, unlocking it to 6970, and overclocking it.
Also I've seen GTX 570's around the same price as 6950's, around a 20$ difference on some.
What do you think is the better choice, buy another 6850, or buy a 6950 (which will be unlocked to 6970 and overclocked, probably with an aftermarket cooler) OR a GTX 570, which will also be OC with an aftermarket cooler?
I'd prefer personal experience over a ton of benchmarks because from my experience those are unreliable.
