Hi guys,
I just want to get your opinions on this.
If you had a choice between a 5870 E6 edition or the Sapphire vapor-x 5870 with 2GB for eyefinity setup, which one would you go for? I am assuming most of you will be using three monitors for eyfinity, so the 6 display advantage for the E6 edition should not come into play.

Thanks

Well when I had a 5x1 setup, the 5870 eyefinity 6 edition was great. But now that I want to run 3 x 30"rs, I have to buy 3 Active DP->Dual-link DVI adapters. This would have been cheaper going with the toxic 5870.
