3870X2 vs 3870 CF ?

[gt_junkie]

Be mad not to get 2x of em at that price.

I agree... great price.

Not seen them anywhere near that price but might get one to go with my X2.

I made no comment in the OP that I was even going to buy them, I just wanted information.

It's ok, i'll ask somewhere else.

Don't be like that.

The question becomes even easier to answer, now though at that price!

CF 3870

They will both be the same if you have 3870s running at 16x/16x.

There will be no recent reviews with latest drivers because who does reviews of old cards. And prolly the reviews that you can find wont have used a 16x/4x motherboard.


I seriously dought it makes that much of a performance difference.

Thanks, would the faster memory on two 3870's have any impact on performance?

well, afaik, everything that runs through the port is going to be slowed as a result of going through the slow port... the difference is supposed to be something like 5 to 20%... someone on these forums claimed as such
