so i have a ati radeon hd2600xt 512 pcie card. and im thinking of upgrading. so would i be better off crossfiring another 2600 or should i get a better series? i can afford another 2600 now because of price cuts but i can wait and get a new series card at the end of the year.
would it be worth crossfiring 2 2600s? or should i just wait? |

it would be better that u sell ur existing 2600 and then buy a 3850/3870 OR if you can squeeze enough money go for 4850

It's pretty obvious that crossfiring two 2600s is not going to do anything useful. Upgrade to any of the following: 3850/9600GT/8800GT/4850

I've been very impressed with my upgrade from a HD2600XT 512 MB DDR4 to the HD3870 512 MB that I have now. It's a big boost in performance.
