I am considering buying a 6850 but I am wondering if it will be a good upgrade from the 5750.

cheers.

Can you Crossfire?

I think you can Crossfire the 5750 and I would imagine in Crossfire they will poo on the 6850. Would probably be cheaper too.

Edit. Yes it would seem you can. If you have dual PCIE and can Crossfire I would advise that

Read on from there. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised what they can do when strapped

Crossfire 5750 nips at the heels of the 5870. But you'd get a card that sits between a 5770 and 5850?

Another 5750 would cost a lot less too.
