The former; the x850XT combo. If the additional "50" didn't do it for you, the x850XT is basically a refresh of the x800XT/XT PE - higher clock speeds.

If you're willing to put out that much money for a somewhat immature setup(crossfire) I'd jsut get a x1800XL or XT. That would do you better and be easyer to upgrade anyways..

I second that.
1 1800XT will own a 2x x8X0 series cards in crossfire.

Yes but 1300 > 850, but no one is going to argue that the x850 is supirior.

On the otherhand from what I've seen 1 x1800XL will be faster in most cases than crossfired x850s
