Would it be worthwhile for me to get a multi-gpu capable mb?

I currently run an ASRock z77 Pro4, which is only good for single-gpu setups. I have it paired with an Antec VP-450 power supply which is a good budget power supply but only 450 watts all the same so it would need to be upgraded for a multi-gpu rig. Everything has been running really well, great temps and overclocking.

Would it be worthwhile for me to buy a new motherboard and power supply so that I can crossfire my 6850's, or would it be better (ie. better cost/performance ratio) to stick with the single-gpu setup and think about a 7870 or 7950?

Thanks guys,
