Hi guys,
Recently invested in a Dell Ultrasharp 27" monitor, mostly with photo editing in mind, and found that one of the main games I play (StarCraft2) seems to suffer from microstutter since it doesn't fully support crossfire. With this in mind I've been eyeing up some of the latest single card solutions but from most charts and comparisons nothing looks like it's blowing my 5850s out of the water performance wise. Should I hold off for next generation of releases from Nvidia and AMD? I can always disable crossfire for Starcraft2 and just live with lower frame rates at 2560x1440 for a while.
If I was to grab a card right now it would probably be a GTX760 or an 7950.
System information doesn't seem to be an option from user picture anymore so here are the stats of the rest of the system:
CPU: Intel i7 2600K @ 4.6Ghz Corsair H50 2xAkasa Viper
Motherboard: Asus P8P67 Pro B3 Revision
Memory: 16Gb Corsair Vengeance
Graphics: 2 x MSI HD5850 Twin Frozr II (CrossfireX)
Audio: Realtek® ALC892 8-Channel High Definition Audio
Storage: Crucial C300 128GB SSD, Seagate Barracude 2TB 7200rpm
Case: Corsair Graphite 600T Midi Tower
Any advice?
