Price Drop On HD 3850 & 3870?

hmm, I wonder what about a dual 3870 set up instead of a 8800 gts 512... I dont think it is worth the trouble.. but still..

if u have a maximus formula and you dotn wana ge ta 3870x2 i do recomend gettign 2 3870's especially for the price.

It's definitely not bad, for the price drops. I'd do it, if I had some money.

you should start a new Rig, with dual HD3870's or is that 3700+ doing you well currently?

The 3700+ is hanging in there for general use, but I'm really in need of a better rig....multi-tasking and editing is just too slow on my backup. I'm currently saving.

all u need is a new mobo cpu and ram u could pick something up descent for 500$ easy, then if you want upgrade gpu later.

I was thinking this same thing, lol.

Anyone want a GTS512 barely used? ;p

 

[nOcLuE98]

but still, 320 for two 3870's.. you can't really sell your gts for much... I wonder what the bump in performance would be.

Hey, maybe i should sell the 2 gx2's i have coming in and get an x38 board with 3 3870s
