Help me decide from 3 amazingly priced 3850!

I was working with them in an attempt to get software based crossfire working but they were not nice about it at all. Like was said before I love the products, they are pretty darn good.

EDIT: If they were at least courteous, I wouldn't be mad.

The only thing that works is to view the settings, I cannot change anything to any concequence. I attempted to change some settings and I found myself in the endless loop crash.
At least I could reboot and remove the ATITool, none of the settings stuck.
I guess that I will have to be satisfied with them as they are.
The mfg did set the fans to 100% when they tested and set them up. BJ

There is nothing wrong with that. The HD3780 x 2 is a super card and can be run as a single card or double for XFire x 4 cards. This doesn't work with all configurations, you may be lucky. If you are wondering about the receipt for the original sale, I would come back to the fellow you purchased the card from and get the sales slip from him. It would not matter how long ago it was, just get your hands on it and use this as proof of purchase. BJ
