Have also found that running 2 of these won't work in X-Fire mode but I wonder if I can still run 2 5770's for the 6 display option as long as it's not in X-Fire mode. I know I could go for a 5870+ card, but they are like double the price of 2 5770's here and also require buying 6 adapters rather than only 2.
Actually crossfire in eyefinity mode is now "supported" in the latest 9.12 hotfix drivers. And what makes you say you'd need six adaptors for two 5870s? Unless you decided to run with the six-monitor eyefinity edition card you'd only need two.
