Yer I think it just uses the presser from your second card you will get much better performance. |

i have heard ppl having issues with running 5870's with bf3 but that may be isolated issues. dont think 1 or 2gb mixed matters, aslong as there 5870's
you got enough power and connectors ? |

ye thats plenty good enough psu.
one 5870 should be fine to run bf3 anyway, they still got gcard drivers and game patches to come out, you mite end up creating problems for yourself |
