So I have been wanting to upgrade my PC for a while and i just went in to ask what they could do and they said they have to look. I have done some research and have come to a happy medium for price and how good it is. I am pretty sure I'm going to get the Sapphire Radeon HD 6970 2GB.
But i also need to upgrade my CPU which right now is an AMD A6-5400k (which comes with Radeon 7540D). My question is, will the 6970 go with an AMD A8-5600k CPU (which i believe comes with the Radeon 7560D and I don't know if this has Crossfire compatibility) or wouldn't it really work out? Looks like both the gpu and cpu would fit my needs and stay around the 300 budget. If it isn't a good fit together or you know something better that would stay around $300 please feel free to add your opinion
Here is a quick link to the 6970 that i found for $170: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&ved=0CC4QFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.newegg.com%2FProduct%2FProduct.aspx%3FItem%3DN82E16814202035&ei=zi0ZUvCLD8rE2QWXzoCgDA&usg=AFQjCNFQsiAkThfE7KUtu9djGykDpmv1dw&sig2=jdig-5dgpPLpD9KdVTmR7A
