Yeah I know the 5850 and 5870 are out and they run cooler and use less wattage but I just bought a new saphire 2gb 4870 X 2. After purchasing it I'm reading all the post about how hot it gets, so I just bought a new artic cooling accelero xtreme another 65.00 after shipping and tax. It's suppose to lower temps in half and be 75% quieter. Now here's my question. Can I now run my 4870 X 2 and 4870 asus 512mb in crossfire I do realize my board for the second pci slot is 8X but would this work? I have an asus P5Q-E mobo here is the link http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...2E16813131296R. If it does this will be tight, just looking at my space then adding a cooler wow this is crazy.
