That screams like a scam to me. Just wait till friday. That's when the 6000 series cards get released.
do you know what the price of the new 6000 series will be?

Don't run SLI or Crossfire (more than 1video card) unless you know something about what you're doing. And chances are, because you asked for a video card, you aren't doing anywhere near close. In addition, besides the video cards, you'd still need the rest of the computer to support the cards to use them to their max potential. If you hinder yourself that then there is zero point in using multiple video cards.

I'd just save for the 58xx series and just get a 5850, or a 5770, which I have. Great card, and affordable.

Have you guys "heard" the Radeon 6990 yet? It sounds like a jet on afterburners lol

Click on different points of the video to see how loud it is under little load, and when the card starts to get hot (loudest towards the end)

don't get radeons for now. 5770, 5830, 5850, 5870, 6870, 5970, and 6990's all are highly fluctuated due to the massive bitcoin wagon... they're all super expensive or out of stock.

Nice Two cards are working well for me, only running a 26" monitor though. Our setups look similar
