I am running a single 7850, was going to get another one. I was wanting some feedback on how much two of these will increase my gaming compared to just one single card. thumb.gif

You should easily outperform a single GTX680 or HD7970. Just google the results of them cards and you should know what to expect... I hope that helps.

It would be a better idea to sell your HD 7850 and go for a HD 7950. You are looking at close to 40 - 50% better performance from a HD 7950 (1.15 Ghz) compared to HD 7850 (1.2 Ghz). even with the older drivers HD 7950 was competing with GTX 670.

http://www.hardocp.com/article/2012/08/23/galaxy_gtx_660_ti_gc_oc_vs_670_hd_7950/3

Now with the 12.11b drivers HD 7950 is actually doing better than GTX 680.

http://www.overclock.net/t/1318674/tpu-amd-announces-never-settle-catalyst-12-11-driver-update/150#post_18428759

For 280 bucks after mail in rebate and with an awesome game bundle the Sapphire HD 7950 Boost is hard to beat . the user reviews are quite positive.

Get a RMA.

Complain to dice and wait for a patch, learn to program and fix it yourself, or realize its not that big of a deal.

Sorry, didn't want to wade through 201 pages (though I did look through about 10). Has anyone fixed their blackscreen issue on their Sapphire 7870 by either reapplying TIM or a waterblock?

There is no point in doing that. The black screens are caused by a faulty capacitor. Read the article in the previous post or this topic:
http://www.overclock.net/t/1310654/amd-hd-78xx-problems-all-users-with-problems-please-post-here-we-want-amd-support-on-this-asap.
Only solution is RMA.

I did, but I opened mine because I thought there was something loose in the card or something. It was a false alarm, but it gave me a change to get some new paste on it in case I overclock. I'm using Ceramique.
