Hey, I am new to building PC's and though I have done my research to a degree, I just wanted to get some expert opinions on it.
I am currently looking at running two HIS H695QNT2G2M Radeon HD 6950 IceQ X Turbo Video Card - 2GB - in Crossfire

The HIS H699F4G4M Radeon HD 6990 4GB 256-bit GDDR5

And finally the ASUS NVIDIA GeForce GTX 590 3 GB GDDR5

Now Some quick notes. I don't care if it is AMD or Nvidia, not a fanboy really, just want the best performance in game. I have heard however that the 6990 sounds like a jet when its fan kicks in during gaming which could be an annoyance. However I could most likely live with it if I have headphones on.
Just wanna say I am running a single monitor setup if that makes a difference. Money is also not a huge issue but obviously if it isn't a massive upgrade over the two 6950's I would rather save the money than spend it haha.
So what do you think will work for me best or is the best value in general. Having the ability to makes out AAA Titles is pretty big to me, I enjoy seeing a game as it was meant to be seen. Thanks again!
