Dual 6970's

[Rob21]

Hi, since I already have 1 HD 6970 would it be a good idea to get another one for crossfire? With dual 6970's what single GPU would they be equivalent to? Thanks.

 

EDIT: Games I'll be playing. CS:GO, GTA V, Aura Kingdom, and a bunch more. Hopefully that helps.

what games will you be playing? not all games scale well (or at all) with multi gpu options

if you play games that scale well I would go for it

I've been thinking of picking up anoter 6950 to go with my current one Just need to find a way to get rid of the existing heat..

Hi, sorry guys I edited the OP with the additional info.

Anymore opinions?

Check if your case has good enough cooling for that setup, also you be looking at R9 280X like performance i think from dual 6970s.

How much will you be paying for another one? It may or may not be worth it.

How can you check if the game is scale well or not?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it does. It's the Bitfenix Shinobi.

About $95 for a brand new one.

 

 

Another question, would my Corsair TX750 PSU be able to handle both cards?

Meh, you can get a used 7970 for 110-120$. That is a bit too much for that i'd pay for.

I do not trust used computer components.
