Hi, just wondering if 4780x2 in crossfire is worth having, quite like the idea of a quad core graphics, cannot seem to find many newer reivews using newer drivers,,, any advice would be great.

Tri fire is the sweet spot.
So seeing as you only have 2 slots you would have to sell one of the 4870s & get a 4870X2.

If you do make sure you install air conditioning and get a pair of ear defenders

My single 4870x2 makes enough noise wouldn't like to imagine 2 of the little toasters sat next to each

I know what you been,, my 4780's god the heat, the noise is not to bad,, might give tri crossfire a go,,

No point. It isn't needed at the moment/won't gain you much. Plus the time it is needed there will be much more efficient next generation cards out.

If money isn't the issue it might, out of curiosity, be worth a laugh, a bit of fun and an interesting experiment but I can't think of many games that will utilize the power. Worth it maybe if you have high res.
