I would just like to know if I could expect to see any bottleneck from my CPU if I choose to upgrade and add a second 7870 (of exact same make and model) in crossfire, I'll be running everything at 1920x1080 resolution.

My current setup is as follows:

CPU: AMD FX-8320 running at 4.0GHz
Motherboard: GIGABYTE 990FXA-UD3
RAM: 8GB corsair vengeance
GPU: One GIGABYTE 7870 2GB GHz edition
PSU: Corsair 800W

Thanks for your help!

No bottlenecks. Do you have already one 7870 or will you buy two 7870? If you haven't bought anything I suggest you go with single-gpu as CF/SLI can cause problem and you will see microsuttering (the gameplay won't feel smooth and you might see tearing).

I already own one 7870 right now, and I was offered another by a friend who is also upgrading for a pretty cheap price. Just wanted to make sure my current setup wouldn't gimp the new card before buying it
