5870x2 vs 5870 crossfire

How will 5870x2, which comes out next month, perform compared with two 5870's. Will it also come with the Dirt 2 coupon.

i think an x2 would be better than two seperate cards. dual gpu cards tend to perform a bit better than two single gpu cards. you probably will only need the 5870, not a 5870x2 of 2 5870s. there isn't anything out there that even needs one of these cards, let alone two (or two in one)

I have a sapphire 5870 on the way, and tbh a dual cardor 2 seperate cards perform basically the same way. Plus you can use software to voltmod the card and overclock the core past 1ghz on the stock cooler..

2 are as good as an X2.

2 cards will probably be better, because they probably will have more vram than the x2. Thinking of the 5870x2 makes me feel fuzzy inside :) I just hope it has 4 video out connections like the 5870, because they might have to take it out due to the heat.

Crossfire will be faster. There will also be 5870x2 4gb. (2x2 of course).

Yall do know the X2 is going to come in 2GB and 4GB formats right?

What abt the price? 5870x2 will be cheeper than 2 5870 crossfireX??manutd4life0023

always however it wont be a huge difference 25 bucks at best
