Based on what I read of the Captain's experiences with dual Radeon GPU's I was a bit skeptical before. However after some more reading I realised that while some issues do exist, the majority of users do not have such horrid experiences. At least those that post.

I am happy to say that my dual 6950's (unlocked to 6970's  :happy0203:) are performing flawlessly in BF2, BF3, Splinter Cell Conviction, Dirt 2, MW3, Just Cause 2, Portal, Portal 2 and Batman - Arkham Asylum.

Different experiences for different folks I guess.

Awesome runs 2 460's in SLI btw... I also recall other members stating their interest in 2nd GPU's within the coming future...

@kgfalby... why haven't we seen u in BF3 yet? 0_o

Maybe my Mainboard doesnt like AMD gpu's. Seems like im the only one with issues.

In other news, seems as though the first 'real' 7 series cards will be coming out early January:

The world's first 28nm GPU architecture, optimized for gaming and compute.

Can't wait to get my compute on!

impressive indeed

can't wait to see what the next generation of GPU wars brings.

Not that I'd be changing my 6970 anytime soon

It having just earned best card for the US$300-400 category (well it tied with the 570, but a win is a win)

Good lord...that is some SWEATY performance...but at 549 US...yeah...way beyond my budget.
I am NEVER paying that for a single card again.

My TWO 6950s cost 512 US...so no.  Still, awesome  GPU.

Agreed.

I'll wait for the "modestly priced" version.

but arc, as a single gpu advocate myself, I'd go for that one card over two given how close they are in price. IF I won lotto or got a "wuk" by messiaah.

At current income levels, I personally have a disdain for spending more than US$300 for a graphics card (or a CPU, or any single PC component as a matter of fact, lol)

Went slightly over budget with the purchase of the 6970

Bloody ridiculous to pay so much for a part.

I could just hear the console fanatics snickering as my wallet depletes. lol

hhahaha, I planning to keep this card for about three years.

Who knows, maybe I might catch a "mid life O/Crysis" and start to mix it up with the top dogs on the vantage and 3dmark 2011 charts. Upgrading like a forge (sc2 joke)

Stranger things have happened.

Just had a look at the article TriniWyatt highlighted from Tom's hardware and i could not help but notice that the 2gb 6950's in crossfire recieved an 'honourable mention'  :happy0203:

Just watched the review video for the 7970. Wow! That card is a beast.

I think it's good for the price (considering it beats the 580 in just about everything) but the 580 came out last year...soo...according to historical events it is pretty much inevitable the 600 series will kill this off lol

Yeah, but to make it even more competitive, AMD should drop the price by 100 US...then I'd buy it in a heartbeat.  :)
