Dropin in 2x 3870!!!

[Eastcoasthandle]

So from what I see here CF these cards isn't really worth it?

Although a boost in 3dm is nice for the epeen, i'm only interested in performance gains in games tbh, from what has been reported it doesn't look that good.

Sure immature drivers etc may be a factor but the 2900 had the same excuse and those magical drivers never really transpired...

I'd really appreciate it if you guys who actually have the CF set-up rack up a few real world game bench results, preferably new titles such as crysis, cod4, ut3 demo, world in conflict, hl2 ep2 etc. Please?

My native res is 1920x1200 so that is really what I'm interested in

I really fancy selling the 88gt to buy two 3870's but if CF isn't working with new games/not much of a boost then I'd rather save my £ and wait for the next gen flagship models and get a single card solution - hopefully they will drop in early 08.

Thanks

I think the advantages are there when there are far more people with CF capable boards then those using nvidia chipset boards. It cost more to get a nvidia board with an additional GT then it is to get 2 3870s. If you are happy with the way they perform in the games you play no one can say otherwise.
