Hey guys, so I got offered 550$ to sell my gigabyte hd 5970.. honestly I cant decide, sell and get gtx 580, or sell and wait for 699.. , or sell and get crossfire? or gtx 590? that duel gpu one .. I never had problems with my 5970 I am using 10.12 and everything runs smooth and without problems... oh i play BC2, ut3 I been playing witcher , all those games uses both gpus at 99% .. ah confused to sell it or keep it?
just a note, amd has GARBAGE linux support but it is sloooowwwly gettin better. I can now start starcraft 2 and get to the main menu now but there is no ingame.
thanks guys, I am going to sell it and wait for 6990 and 590 ,or get 2x6950 , Il just use something else i have ati 4870 and nvidia 8800gts sitting somewhere

bye bye gigabyte 5970 its gone.. now I am using his 4870 lol!!!!1 what a downgrade , I have to wait now for new 595 or 6990 or go crossfire 6950.. options... I hope this ati 4870 plays bc2 or jc2
Maybe he lives in a country with high electronic imports taxes. Here a 580GTX costs around 800 usd for example.
