    I don't have a 7970, but I do have a SLI setup with 2x GTX580's and a 6870, all hooked up to 120hz monitors, and all that I get is 60hz out of both setups. I could be wrong, but I do not think that the graphics cards out today can push 120hz.

    The 7970 can do 120Hz I've played a few games and they do run really smooth no tearing in black ops when it maxes out at 90fps but i have had problems with the card in this game running at 120Hz once the game minimized its self, Also the problem i get in windows is with my taskbar it seem to spaz out, Bios update why would that help ??
