Back to school!!
Same old same old, actually buying the 7970 is stupid in india atm as its still costlier than 680.
Guys I have a Asus P8H67-M, it has two PCI_E 2.0 slots (16x, 4x).. One is already accumulated by my HD6870.. but the second slot runs @4x, so in future can I upgrade to HD6870 CFX? I mean would that 4x cause any bandwidth/performance issue? Some say 4x is fine for HD6870, some say 4x will slow down both cards.. Please advice, I want to have to 2x performance most reviewers are getting.

What resolution you're using? If it is 1080P then you can go for it, performance difference is not more than 8%, even with gtx 480.
The CFX will work but on the 4x slot the card wont perform to its full potential
Will it hinder the performance of the card on 16x slot?
Yeah, 1080p. Do you know anybody who has done that? And what about heat? You see the slots are placed quite close to each other. Airflow problem?

Remove Drivers and do a fresh install.
Steps for installing latest drivers:
Uninstall the old drivers, don't reboot if asked by AMD setup
Use DriverSweeper to remove the leftovers and reboot
Install latest driver and reboot again
Enjoy latest drivers

a friend of mine is lending me his XFX 6850 for a year as he is going abroad (good for me!!) but his motherboard does not have an igp so i was planing to buy a low end graphics card like gt240, gt 520, hd6450, hd5450 any of this so that his computer is usable after i took the hd6850 from him. i will buy probably buy the 7870 later if they are still around next year or an 88xx series if they come out next year. thats not the issue though
i am sending home my old msi 890gxm g-65 motherboard which has the hd4290 igp and might be able to hybrid crossfire either 6450 or the 5450 graphics later on.
or im thinking of buying the gt240 or the gt520 to give him and later when i get it back was planning to use it as a physX card only beside the 7870 or the 88xx series card later on my system
i have gone through most of the forum regarding physX use alone for such low end cards but as i am going to buy one anyway to barter with the XFX6850 might as well get a good deal
budget is under 3k so, any ideas???

that was quick...thanks but will the physX thing work later on or is it another gimmick?
and is that faster than hybrid 5450 and 4290?

I uninstalled The drivers
and installed 12.4 fresh!
Still it shows 12.3
I guess its AMD'S problem

Nop i have downloaded 12.4 correctly lets check when 12.5 comes out
PhysX is a gimmick. GTX 240 is the card to get. Much faster than HD 5450/6450.
Hybrid graphics with HD 4290 is of no practical use.
