Unless there's hope for a neat and quick resolution direct from MSI (I don't like my chances) I'm going to stick with running the single 6950. If anyone here is familiar with the issues I was having with Crossfire in the first place (didn't work, just caused me headaches for 2yrs) it's still an upgrade because effectively I only ever had a single 6870 running.

haha Damn, I really wanted a Boeing and you got me all excited. I'm not sure crossfire is worth the pain of setup that a lot of people report, although my big case looks so empty without it Originally Posted by Tokkan
You can't crossfire them... I'm sorry mate. Best thing to try and do now is sell the 6870 and try to get a used 6950 if you wish to keep crossfire.
Or sell both and the money you get from them should be enough for a 787.
Edit: I meant a 7870 graphics card... not a Boeing 787

You could always trade for a 6870. If I only had one I would trade you for it.
