    HD 6850 CrossFire issues

    Does anyone have any information about possible problems when crossfiring HD 6850. Are there any functionality issues at all comparing to HD6870?

    I'm considering getting HD6850 as it represents good value for the money and is kind of nearest-future-proof solution as I can add another one later. I'm very occasional gamer, will run 2560x1440 monitor.

    Only issue that seems to be a problem with the AMD cards when crossfiring is microstuttering. From what i've heard, CF 6870's have worse microstuttering issues than CF 6850's.

    hi biscuit96!
    thx for your reply. Do you still happen to remember where you heard/read that? I will also try to google up myself.
