Ok, so I have two options,

Option 1 - 2x Sapphire ATI X1950XT 256MB
Option 2 - 2x Sapphire X1950Pro 512MB

I want to know if the extra Pixel Shaders and such on the XTs are worth compromising 512MB of video memory for.

I'm not a hardcore gamer of any kinds so power usage or performance don't really matter to me that much. I mean, of course it does matter, but I won't be playing games that much, although I do have plans of using my pc on a HDTV so I would be using it at 1920 x 1080 resolution.

I need the 4 outputs, so a single card isn't really an option.

Thanks in advance =]

I thought you could only crossfire the XT cards? But id get the 2 x 256MB cards, since the 512MB (well 1GB in your case) isnt really worth the extra cash since you will not be gaming at resolutions higher than 1080

i would wait for the hd2900xtx with 1g of mem for about the same price in about a week
edit: but i would say the 512 pros

Video mem doesnt matter that much at all. A 6600GT 128MB will totally destroy a 6200 512MB since has double the pipes.

Umm, you need a master card for the x1950XT. A single X1950XT rapes a single X1950Pro. It's not even a fair match. For teh same price of two of those cards you can get an 8800GTS. With X-Fire you can only use 1 Monitor for the master card. The cards taht do not require a master card can only do two.
