hey guys new this this forum , I was playing the beta version of crysis 3 with 6990 +6970 in tirfire with driver version 13.2 (5) beta i was getting anywhere between 70 - 90 frps maxed everything including msaa x 8 or whatever it is @ 1920 x 1080 p with no micro stuttering , the 7970 has less issues for cf im 99 % sure you will see no problems with ms 🙂 hope this helps
 
Don't take advice on this from Nvidia shills/fanboys get it from someone who has Crysis and 7970 crossfire. I'd get another 7970 if I were you and if it really doesn't work well (which I'm pretty sure it will) then return it to the shop/etailer.Please do feed back on your experience !

Newegg won't return without the card being defective or they charge a restock fee. I may pick another up in a month. Still not sure. I'll try crysis 3 out soon and figure it out.
 
Alright first impression, damn! lol. What a huge difference.

The only problems I have experienced is that its getting very noisy with 4 fans spinning.

Havent tested much, but here is a first test.

Check fan speed in trix or ccc. Mine is not loud at all. I hear it playing games but not like you describe. I use fans on auto but maybe try a custom fan curve.
