    Question 7870 Crossfire?

    Is a 7870 Crossfire worth it or not?
    I need some help because I never did crossfire setups.
    Thanks

    I believe @Aborted said that two 7870's could almost be as powerful as a titan

    They're extremly powerful, but you could buy higher card, then you can double it to crossfire in a later time

    If your price point isn't flexible, then yes, a 7870 Crossfire would be fantastic.

    No I think you'll need at least 700 watt

    Get a 750W modular Power Supply, make sure its certified for multiple GPU solutions.

    Also you timed this vey well, AMD is releasing beta drivers that are optimized for crossfire all over the place, those should roll out soon and make Crossfire even sexier and remove the microstutter.
