Ever since that moment I've had my doubts about nvidia's Fermi. Nvidia's drivers have also been suffering there's issues at my res( video playback issues) that did not exist 4 months ago, and also they've managed to remove support for a bunch of game. You can sit around for a fat pig to do something, but he's only going to get fatter.
    But stefan, you had gtx 285 SLI or something to that effect. Do you really think you are missing out on that much? You can't play games on what you had before?

    What happens if they very same problem with your 4870x2 pop up with your new cards, which is likely to happen since the 5970 is based on the same technology and CF bad drivers.

    I guess you could sell your cards and take a loss, but that just wasting money. You might have plenty of money, but everyone is not like you and must be practical at the same time.

    Yikes that a bad upgrade. What resolution do you game at? If the dirt 2 benchmarks are any indication, the 5770 might be too slow for high settings in future directx 11 games and probably the 5850 too.

    Did you sell your 4870? You should have just waited for your 5850 to come back.

    Though any veteran hardware enthusiasts know that waiting for hardware will get you nowhere. There will always be something faster out before the year is over.
