i just got my pc setup and running yesterday.It has awesome onboard graphics, so i am going to run with that til i learn to oc.I know it can only take hd6670 for highest gpu to run crossfire.Would it be better to favor cpu in bios and run a 6950 single for better gaming graphics?

The 3570K in Hybrid Crossfire with a 6670 creates a 6690D which is about equal to a 6770.

If you do get back better GPU than the 6670, then you're essentially stuck with an unlocked Athlon II X4 as your CPU.
