5870 x 2 6970 for eyefinity

Hey I have 1 5870 already and have ordered my 2nd benq 24" 1080 monitor due to get my 3rd for xmas. Would I be able to game at max settings still if crossfired? Also does the sapphire adaptor only work with the 5xxx series as I don't want to be stuck with a future useless set up

anybody?

yeah I knew the memory would be a factor but thought the sheer power of a 5870 xfire might make it possible on highest settings on most games

I would be wanting to play at 1080. All I want is to be able to play my games at close to max with 3 of these

using one of these

I remember somebody in another tread said the 6XXX series wouldnt be compatible with this adaptor. I kinda feel locked into my 1gb 5870 now and already have my 2nd monitor on the way. It would be easier if the new cards had a standard display port as they are 2gb are they not? So my choice is another 5870 to hopefully power through them due to lack of 2gb memory or the new cards will work with this adaptor.
