Ok. I am debating SLI or Crossfire. So heres what i have come to so far. *****SLI*****
1. ASUS 512MB Geforce 7900GTX 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card
*****CROSSFIRE*****
ATI Radeon X1900XT 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 VIVO PCI Express x16 Video Card

Which of these to cards would be best for running 2 screens whilst playing Battlefield 2 on one screen and maybe nothing or the internet on the other screen? Price does NOT matter. Thanks

ok, well i dont want that. I want to no which of the 2 cards I listed is best. Thanks... + your link doesnt work.
 
Heres my opinion. Although the crossfired X1900's would theoretically add up to a higher performance than the 7900's, the overhead and crosstalk on crossfire is FAR FAR greater than on SLi, Also, crossfire still ha a lot of bugs that arent ironed out yet.

In my opinion the 7900 SLi setup will suit you a lot better and give you more performance.
