Crossfire Q

br0tz34 · Nov 3, 2012

So i just got a 7870 video card, i originally wanted the 7970 but they were out so i settled and im not too pleased with it i only get like 38-45fps on guild wars 2 on high settings. My question is if i were to buy an asus 7970 could i crossfire it with my diamond 7870 or whats the deal with that?

No. You can only crossfire in the same series. 7950-7970, 6950-6970. Like that.

Where were you looking to buy 7970's that they were sold out? Newegg has them in stock. They have the XFX black edition for $399 after a rebate.

Send back the 7870 and get a 7970.

If you wanted the 7970 your really not getting your monies worth with a 7870.

Well maybe something like this on Special Offer and Free Delivery? Regards AJ.

just a local electronics store lol but yea i think i will return it, i have my eye on that pretty little asus 7970

If you haven't had it for too long and you have all the packaging without damaged they should take it back

If not "its broken"

afaik, guildwars 2 is hugely CPU limited, the more processing power you have, the better framerates you get.
i get 45-65fps with crossfired 4890's, and a core2extreme @ 3.6ghz
