5970 vs 6950 CF who wins?

[bakes0310]

As title i currently own a xfx 5970 and i noticed ocuk have an offer on the saphire 6950 for just £200. Would 2 6950 be better than my 5970?

You don't gain more GPU power. You gain more vram per GPU.

Higher clocks & better scaling though.

Yep, beaten by a reasonable margin in some games. Though I think the real benefits will be better dual gpu scaling, higher minimum and average frame rates and, if memory serves me right, lower power draw.
