You really think I would have the PC that I have if we couldn't pay our bills

Two slightly slower cards are faster then one, but that doesn't give it "the peformance crown".
Except it is one card, with dual gpu's. Yes it has 2 gpu's used in the 4870, but 2 4870s does not equal the 4870x2. Why can't people wrap their heads around this? It's one card, and does indeed take the performance crown, albeit while using a very large amount of power and costing a lot of money.
