Ive got 2 hd 5870 1 gb in crossfire right now thinking about adding a third (I know I probably cant use that much gpu power) and running in eyefinity (3 27" res 5760x1080) or would the 2gb hd 5870 help eyefintiy run better & scale better ? |

Please please please don't do this.................... You are spending way way way too much money on computers. 3 way crossfire is absolutely impractical (search google for reviews). You will never be contented if you keep doing this. |

Even if you did do it, you'd only use 1GB of that 2GB card, as when it comes to VRAM, CrossFire/SLI don't work like RAID0... they work like RAID1. |
