Hey gamers, Just got a question and was hoping someone could help. Right now, Im running a HIS radeon 6850 Iceq Turbo. Im trying to figure out if it would be worth it to pick up another one for $179 or just suck it up and spend 3-4hundred on a new card. Iv heard mixed reviews about crossfire so I wasnt sure, I play on a 28' monitor at 1920/1080. As of now I can bassicly run everything maxed but Im so picky about fps dropping I usually sacrafice the gfx for better fps. (drop it down a setting).. Iv seen some charts/scaling on my card in crossfire and it beats out some high end single cards. Ill try and link a pic.

Thanks for any help people

-Chris

i think going crossfire with the 6850 is really good..actually even a single 6850 runs games really well at 1080p.the 6850 crossfire setups scales really well.me myself want to crossfire my 6850 and have been watching youtube videos about the performance and have seen some awesome results. i say go for it you wont regret it.also checkout youtube it will light the fire in you..

I'm going to crossfire my HD6870. That will do it well, considering I play my games at 1360 * 1024.
