570 or 6950?

And even unlocked, how would it compare to my crossfire setup?

I know the AnanTech figures are to be taken with a pinch of salt however it seems my setup would be a lot faster.

You're not going to find a single GPU card to outdo your Crossfire setup.

They even compete with a GTX 580:

CF HD 5850 v GTX 580

The only possible limiting factor of your Crossfire setup is the 1GB of VRAM.

fowler002 bought 2 and reported that one had unlocked. Last I heard they hadn't tested the second card yet.

I know someone else who bought 3 and they all unlocked.

Chances are high but I'm looking at a cost to upgrade of about £80 and even if unlocked, for a card that won't perform better than my two. I think I'll wait.

Amazing performance for the cost. I think I'll keep them and see what BF3 retail looks like, and all the while adding a bit of cash to the upgrade account.

Might buy a new PCIEx1 soundcard so I can move my current one from between the cards.
 
Can get a 1280MB MSI GTX 570 Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC for £239.99 with a free wolf king gaming keyboard.

Seems like a great deal, worth buying ?
