Base your GPU purchases on what what you need, not on what is the shiniest and newest. I've had my 5870's for years now and they still run my games adequately. I've had them for so long I would never consider them to have been a bad purchase. Your 7950's have so much life in them it would be foolish to consider dumping them. Spend money on more games and upgrade your GPU when they can no longer play games to your satisfaction.

Yes I will be keeping them for now, until something comes out that I cannot run at 60fps at max settings. I will also be tempted to side-grade to a single gpu solution that can provide the same performance for half the watts. Could 8970 be it? I have a feeling 8xxx series will be here by Christmas. Finger crossed.

Feels like the 7000 series was launched only a few days ago .. nvidia shouldn't be far behind as well. Let's see what they've got! 😀
