Which one ?

Ah. So ppl with a mid to high performance cards wont see much of a boost in games upgrading to 2500k, unless upgrading from a real slow cpu.

Ppl with stupidly high end gpu's will see a nice performance boost upgrading from dual or the old quad cpu's to a 2500k, as the dual or old quad cpus will be holding back stupidly high end gpu's loads

But with like a 6950 you wont see much of a boost in fps as a good dual or the old quads will be able to almost max out the gpu. So yeh the max/min fps might not be like wow, but games will run smoother as the fps will be a lot steadier.

I saw a massive difference when just running a single 5850 clocked at 900Mhz.

Fame rates were much more consistent and in certain games a single 5850 with a 2500k was smoother then my old Phenom 2 with 5850 Crossfire.

Well a 6950 at stock speed runs at 800mhz I think, and my e8400 was slightly bottlenecking it, so Im guessing a 5850 at 900mhz is quite a bit of difference, so more of a boost when upgrading cpu?

We all know crossfire/sli are abit hit and miss with games
