Would you kindly tell me or search, to see if Dual ATI Radeon 5870's are better then a Single ATI Radeon 5970, I know that the 5970 is 2gigs of VRAM, and I know that one single 5870 is 1gig of VRAM, I'm just not sure what would be better. Help?
Dual Cards is always better than a Dual GPU Card.
In the radeons, they usually underclock it.
In nividias, they cut parts off.
Heat issue, you see.
(for multi GPU on 1 card)
dual 5870's are obviously going to be better/equalled to a 5970. Only problems with it is more power consumption, computer will heat up more.
