Was thinking about crossfiring the 4890 with this 4870 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814103193
what do you think, worth it or would it be better to wait and upgrade the video card with something more powerful when the HD 7 series come out later next year?

if its because of the video card the 4890 is a bit faster than a 6770 just without dx11 support
its also on par with a 550TI which is a pretty decent mid range card
