well, I was thinking about selling my current cards, and getting one (to start with) of these. so, 2 7800GTX to a single 3870. I was wondering tough, would the performance difference be worth it?
I mean, is the 3870 a lot better than what i currently have? I'm running windows xp x64 atm (because i have a legal version of that) and I dont want to spend 130 euro's on vista jsut yet, so the DX10 doesnt bother me.
either way, I can sell 1 of my cards for 80 euros (right now) and I'm sure the 2nd one will get me the same ammount of money (or i'll keep it as backup)
the 3870 costs 210 euros (so, 50 euro's more than my 7800's together)
all I basicly need is a yes, or no, in terms of is the performance that much better to validate the effort and costs of it? (benchmark comparisons would be nice ^^ )
