Great Link for the digi-coin charts !!

I have tried both crossfired and not crossfired [I have 2x r6770's ] using them separately with two different workers (same username) seems to work the best along with giving u the ability to track each cards output.

This also allows you stop mining on a single card for use, gaming, movies, etc...

Intensity is at 9 already
I cannot clock the 5850 more (not allowed...)
Is there a way to do it?
5870 crashes above 895Mhz, this is the top (even 895 is borderline...)

Overclock your core clock to 850-900 and set the intensity to 9 should give you more hashes

I also have a poor 5570 laying around maybe I will just plug it in :-)

Why not.

No need xfire for mining really

For 5850 card, around 300-340 MH/s is good.

If you get 5870, you are going to get something about 370-400 MH/s.

Also, I would not recommend you to crossfire two different cards. Buy another 5850 and put it crossfire with your existing (or buy two 5870).

No Crossfire here enabled
5850 maxes out around 300 and something (775Mhz GPU and 300Mhz RAM)
5870 maxes out around 400 (895 GPU and 300Mhz RAM)

I'm pretty sure for mining you don't use crossfire at all.  There's no frame to split in two and render separately on each card, so you lose performance.  You want each card doing its own work to get max performance from each card.
