well i got the 7970 ... and now im RMAing it bad tearing and artifacting. It doesnt happen all the time but just enough to make it look like ass... and i mean WoW looks like ass, it was better with a single GTX460. skyrim i get purple trees and a lot of tearing and nothing ive done with the drivers or clock speeds has helped, AA on AA off its still the same may have just gotten a bad card ill give em one more shot to make me happy then im back to Nvidia

1920X1080 one monitor and yes eventually will crossfireyou dont tell us at what resolution you play and if you use a multi monitor setup.
i have buy ati and amd from a lot of years and the only issue i have was in the past the driver support on ubuntu 8.1 and other older version.
if the price il lower go amd , if you think lavue in money = performance you are wrong why depends for what you need and how you use it .
and exsample is bring a gtx titan for play at 1280x 1024 its extreme but if you understand what i mean make you choise for what you really need and looking for a future proof videocard is what i think in my opinion.
the final question is how can you compare a 5970 dual gpu =crossfire on single pci ex vs a gtx 670 sli ? is nonsense compare something with different generation tecnology and driver optimization , you have thinking about make a 7970 crossfire?

nope... it looks like a bad card
well im still getting the flashes of artifacting and tearing i havent RMA'd the card yet but im sending it out this week and i tried my 460s in sli and no problems so im assuming its just a bad cardit failed on something?
You dont generally get given an upgraded card after rmaing and then get given a card that breaks (unless you're Asus of course).
Ever wondered if the problem lies elsewhere.
if you're on a single monitor at 1080p, you should be looking at the 7950/70 and 670/80. They will all suit your needs, but at very different price points.
I see a lot of hatred towards both AMD and NVidia in this thread, and you shouldnt listen to any of it. I've owned 6 nvidia card and 4 AMD cards, from the last 3 generations at least. All of them worked well with no complaints besides BETA drivers, but you know, beta is beta, you should expect bugs. Check your price point and get the card closest to it.

yea i dont blame ether i mean there are some people out there who are like "I always buy *insert favorite GPU brand here* and ive never had a bad card ever" all that tells me is "I dont deal with computers other than my own, i might build one computer every couple years or so" but anyone who has dealt with GPUs a lot will tell you no matter what brand or vendor card you have you always have a chance of getting a bad card. Its how said company deals with their bad card. I would have liked to see some shipping paid but an upgraded card will do too. so far with the brands ive dealt with EVGA seems to have the best CSCertainly worth RMAing then. Cant blame AMD for faulty cards, just the vendor

you wanna play game smooth and make sli or crossfire without overclock the cpu?
if you can oc your cpu try the sli of 660 ti or the single 7970 and see how is going.
you have the latest driver? only in wow you have artifacts?
i have a 6950 and i have played wow a lot of time and no artifacts so i think depends on some settings in the catalyst.
