either go with a pair of 6870s or buy a 580.
sure the 5970 might be a little faster than 6870x2 once overclocked, but it would come with a much louder fan.
2 6850s are a better choice considering that they clock like hell and are barely slower than 6870 once overclocked (barts is heavily bandwidth starved and the additional SPs on the 6870 don't do much once both cards are clocked above 1ghz core)

i hope AMD settles for some insane clocks on the mem
