GRID is a ATI friendly game - try GRAW and the thing looks all different... For the price I'd go with the 2x HD4870, as most motherboards, that...

Yeah, the motherboard kinda suggests that crossfire is the way to go if multi-gpu setups are to be considered. ;) The HD4870 is due on Friday,...
Thanks for the quick answer. Going to hate that week of going back in time 5 years :)

Wow, what a lot of replies :) I have in fact also considered the HD4870, but as it is difficult to get any real performance data on that card...
