Hi there,
Building a new computer and I have about a $600 budget for the graphics card.
My original selection was going to be the r9 290x but with the price rumoured in excess of $700 it puts it out of my price range. The 780 is a stretch for $650 and I was looking at purchasing 2 radeon sapphire 7970s as they go for $300 a piece, combined with being able to choose 6 games under the never settle forever bundle made it look really enticing, my other choice was of course to go for a 770 or a 7970 ghz. I game on a single 1080p monitor but perhaps sometime in the future I may look to go a triple monitor but not for a while. I have heard that a single 7970 can satisfy my needs it was just with all the new games coming out I was a little concerned and the extra 3 games to me almost justifies it by itself. Which one do you think I should go for and are there any problems with going crossfire? Is the performance gain substantial?
Thanks for any help you are able to provide
