You think crossfire of 5870 is overkill?

[woostar88]

I have i7 920 @ 4 ghz
6gb of ram 1600
750 corsair psu
antec 1200
xfx 5870

I'm think about adding another 5870
but before I do it. U think it's waste of money?

I play cs source, aion, cod4 and 5

 

[crosko42]

What res do you play at?

 

[woostar88]

I have Dell 24 inch. I think 1920x1200

If money is not an issue....Nothing is overkill..Next generation games will push this card to the limit. Take note CRYSIS IS YET TO BE TAMED.

Well, yeah at this resolution.

No, but I would wait until Nvidia releases their DX11 cards and the prices drop on the 5870. You already have one and I cant imagine that it is having any problems with the games you are playing right now. So no hurry!

Ic ok im gonna buy some razer keyboard, mouse, mouse pad, and logitech g35

 

[easymoney9]

Sweet!

I've got 2X 5870, playing at the same res that you do, and I can tell you there are still games that challenge my cards a bit. Go for it.

get these instead cauz ur games are already raped with 5870, though 5850 is enough. I play almost games, aion and css.

Keyboard razer lycosa

Mouse logitech g500 when comes out

headset is steelseries siberia.

I have these and im really happy and rather play games lower settings but pwn in aion and other rts game 😀

 

[woostar88]

ok i realize having another 5870 will be future proof. so when xfx is in stock... im gonna order it.

save your money and get a 30", THEN get the 2nd 5870 for the higher resolution
