This is normal now, read some reviews...

And it keeps on par with a l'il oc'ed 7970, but then the minimum fps and all the multi-gpu problems remind about themselves


That's something else! Ty for info


But it's only worth it for games that accept xfire... atm I would go w/ a single card though

Ended up getting a deal on another 7850 of the same type and brand, so I'm gonna be xfiring....My mobo only supports xfire, so essentially this computer is more or less as built as it's ever gonna be and then in a few years I'll start all over with a clean slate as most do. But for now I think it can handle mostly anything out there maxed out in 1080, I don't have a large landscape dual dvi monitor, just a 23" Samsung LED.

? If I go to a single-card GPU that can rival my current performance I'd have to spend atleast $3-400. When I bought my card last year the 7850 was the best bang for the buck, undisputed....I got another 7850 for 150 bucks....
