the hd 5870 Vapor-x looks different(worse imo) so maybe the hd5890 will look as good as, worse, or better. No idea ^^

I think the HD5870 versions looks cool also but the HD5850 beats when it comes to looks IMO

Anyone up for trying to get the Chicago server filled up again? If we can get 4 or so of us in there people will trickle in then once we hit 10, should be set.

Interesting, but whats even more interesting is in CF'd. But my last test of it was back in beta, so maybe it's changed by now.

Same here. What is the server name?


BTW, I just finished my first online match with Crossfire enabled. Damn. Its surreal. 100+ fps online.
I've been avoiding it due to the gray line issue but with the little workaround, its just stunning. Crisp, fast and gorgeous looking. No comparison to a single 5870 now. Gaming nirvana.
Always a few issues with multi GPU setups, but Damn... this is worth it.

The server name is [TPU] Kurganz Krazy Klubhouz, you can see it on post one. Seaching "[TPU]" should get it, make sure TPU is caps. We now have 6 of us.
