I have two computers running 7870s in Crossfire in a gaming lab. I have others running 5850s, among other cards. I know these are older video cards, but they play older games just fine.
My question is do I really gain anything having the 7870s in crossfire, or would my lab be better off splitting up and spreading out the 7870s? Now these are the computers used more often, do of there is real world gaming improvement on older games, then I am OK with it, but if there is very little gain, then it makes sense to split them up and have more equity.
The 7870 will actually play Baldur's Gate 3, but will having two on Crossfire play it better? If the thought is not really, then maybe I should retire a couple 5850s.
Thanks
