So I upgraded my system to what you see in system 1 in my signature.
(System 2 is what it was...)
I ran a set of 4 quick benchmarks/games of what I have installed so far.
It's not the most comprehensive, but I wanted some idea of what I have.
The games were everything maxed in-game vsync off etc.
I started with stock CPU @ 3.4GHz, and one HD6870 @ 915/1050 (Asus reference)
I then OC'D to 4.2GHz CPU, 950/1100 on one HD6870 again.
Then I added a 2nd HD6870 and ran it at the OC'D settings as above.
I didn't add the default versus OC percents, I am more concerned if two cards is worth the hassle and cost. I intend to play the heck out of Borderlands and Just Cause and CoDBO tonight to see if it feels microstuttery.
Just thought I'd share.
