my Spec is:

Box : Antec p180
Graphic card: Asus HD4870 1gb
HDD: SCSI 149gb (i know heh, its old)
Motherboard: MSI p45 neo2
RAM: Corsair 2x2gb ddr2 800mhz
CPU: Intel Quad q9450 stock speed with Zalman 7700

PCU :Fractal design Newton 650W ( http://www.fractal-design.com/?view=pro ... =3&prod=10 )

My question is, Can i run my system with another Asus HD4870 CF ? i mean in load like in crysis will it work?

yes

yes uhm ok

i did read somewhere that a 4870x2 can be better sometimes but i dont want to sell my 4870 just to buy a 4870x2, i live in sweden and its hard to find someone who wants to buy good cards cuz they are expensive -.- thats why i want another one.

btw, does it have to be Asus? and does it have to be 1gb on the other card? can i go with, like sapphire, msi or gigabyte?

they dont have to be the same brand as long as they are the same card, so no it doesnt have to be asus

thanks for the answers, here comes the real question.. is it worth it?

it depends really. what resolution do you use?

well, at this point i go for 1440 x 900 cuz i use my 32 inch HDTV and that is max res, i use Dvi (from card) to VGA (TV) . BUT i usually play with max AA ( if i can )

one other thing, Do u think my Quad will bottleneck the cards in CF?

no, crossfire wont really help that much at that low a resolution. the ROI would be pretty low
