If he's not tech savvy with a pc I wouldn't bother, as crossfire can cause you to go bald early at times.
If he is, and has a decent psu / case cooling / appropriate motherboard then I'd say yes for the price-vs-performance.

I dont think he means 2 cards, i think he is referring to a dual gpu card.
Doesn't matter if it's 2 gpus on a single card, or 2 gpu's on 2 seperate cards, it's still classed as crossfire by the ATi drivers.

Seems like a good deal, this is a very good and powerful card.
Hi guys
Thanks for the feedback, he went ahead and bought the card, so far he's had no problems with it running the games he plays, it appears to be a very fast card , now he's wanting to upgrade his cpu, psu, motherboard and get another 6870 X2.
This I fear may be an expensive and somewhat risky adventure.

Pointless getting another. The GPU's don't scale that well past 2.
