Crossfire 7870 vs Crossfire 7950

7950 all day long if you can afford it. New GCN architecture on the 79xx series might well turn out to be very useful if Mantle really takes off. The 7950's are incredible price right now, I'm actually just about to purchase another one as we speak for Crossfire and sits nicely in my shopping basket.
 
If you are going to upgrade the cpu / mobo sooner than later, then either card will do. However, if you are intending on keeping the main part of your system for a while longer, then I would only go for a 7870 - but bear in mind that a 7870 will still be held back somewhat due to your cpu.
