Add another 7950 or what?

[Orangey]

Hi chaps, planning to do some serious gaming next few weeks, wondering what I should do as I want to whack the settings up as high as I can @ 1920x1200.

Current rig:

i5 2500K
7950 boost
8GB RAM

I'll be clearing the following games from my backlog:

Crysis 3
FC3
Tomb Raider
Hitman Absolution
Max Payne 3
the new Metro game

looking to spend no more than 300 ideally.

overclock the boost...

£300 quids worth of booze

enjoy it....

Forgot to mention my rig is going underwater soon(for some summer OCing)... that's why I need to keep costs down.

Play at 1080p and save yourself a few hundred. No need to SLI yet if it's overclocked, especially since 13.4 as they have helped a lot with crysis 3.
