You mean of the year 2009? This is 2011 as far as I can remember unless I have discovered a way to travel back in time, in which case I better make sure I don't kill my grandfather.
If I were to get this to CrossfireX with my reference PowerColor 6950 where would I put it? Top or bottom?
Does it have the dual BIOS switch?
Other than the additional fans and the slight OC (which I can do myself), this doesn't seem like much of a deal. If I wanted Modern Warfare 2 I'd have bought it already.
But I'd put the reference card at the bottom coz it surely will get more airflow.
