There are dozens of different cards available. What's the primary purpose? Gaming? How much are you willing to spend? Do you have a decent power supply that will meet the requirements for a PCIe video card?

"2 PCI-E 2.0 x16 graphic interface with CrossFireX™ support for ultimate graphics performance " right? Found it on http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Products... :)

If I were you I would take an advantage in the CrossFire. :)

This hopefully links to the ATI page which will help you decide what to buy. :) Give it a try.

Crossfire configurations are generally a waste of money. Not only will you need to buy two cards, but you'll also need a powerful power supply capable of supporting them. And unless you're pairing up two relatively high end cards, it's almost a certainty that there's a single card that will beat the pair.

Leigh, Jam and I could discouss this the whole night. The whole thing depends on you. As Jam says, it will be a waste of money to buy two cards if you don't need it. Now I'm the type of guy who would go for the high-end, but who are you? :) We kinda need a story of your life before we can recommand a buy. :)
Please answer these question:
How meny watt is your power supply?
Who's goin to use this computer?
What will it be used for?
Is it high-end quality gaming, or is it the old internet games you will se on it?
Which programs will you actually run on it?
