Well ive gotten enough money for christmas for another 6970, so im going to crossfire. But i just want to make sure that its going to be worth it, with the power usage and shti like then Specs: Motherboard: Gigabyte 880GA-UD3H CPU: Amd Phenom II x6 1055T @3.3GHZ oced. Cooler with corsair h50 Graphics card: Flashed 6950 (so essentially a 6970) with a Accelero TWIN TURBO II cooler RAM: 8GB DDR3 1333mhz hynix ram, probs gonna upgrade to 16GB or g.skill ripjaws 1600MHZ Storage: OCZ vertex 2 60GB SSD WD caviar black 500GB WD caviar blue (i think) 320GB WD Caviar green 1.5TB WD Caviar green 2.0TB Asus DVD drive Then a WD usb powered 750GB external HDD Power supply: Corsair TX850W Cooling: 5x Aerocool sharks Just making sure, Will there be any bottle necks or power issues with this? Becuase i would hate to go out, put in the 6970 then find out that my system cant power it, or im going to bottleneck severely and not get much of a performance boost
Will work but your CPU might start to be a bottleneck.

[QUOTE=tratzzz;33890173]Will work but your CPU might start to be a bottleneck.[/QUOTE] Yeah in 2020 give or take 3 years.
It won't other than CPU intensive games, you'll power it and it'll work great.
