hi all

i WAS planning on upgrading CPU+RAM+MB but I decided Im gonna leave that for now and rather use the money for a better gfx card. the jump from DDR2 to DDR3 isnt worth it IMHO.

so I was all ready to order another ATI 4870 and then it was pointed out that my Asus P5N-D doesnt support crossfire :sick: sucks!

so instead of selling mobo and getting something that supports crossfire(mission!) I reckon im just gonna pop in an ATI 4870x2

i think this is going to be the better option :confused:

something else to bear in mind is that I dont want to have to upgrade my PSU... I got a a Corsair HX520W at the moment...

thoughts?
