hello everyone.
it's been a while since i last posted here
i wanted to ask you guys a few questions regarding upgrading my gaming system.
my current specs are :
ati radeon 5770 msi hawk 1gb.
amd phenom ii x6 1090t at 3.6ghz.
4gb kingston 1333 ram
msi 760gm-e51 motherboard
thermaltek psu 750w
and i just finished ordering the following parts :
amd r9 280x gigabyte
Asrock AMD 990FX Extreme9 motherboard
x2 4gb vengeance 1600 ram
now what i am wondering is.
1-is my cpu goin to bottleneck my gpu if i oc from 3.6 to 4.1.
2-if i want to get another 280x to crossfire do i have to change my 750w psu if so do i have to get a new one or can use dual psu because i have another 700w i mean like having the gpus on one and the rest of my system on another one. or do i have to just buy a new one.
i am goin to order amd fx 8350 after 2 weeks but if my current cpu will do id like to save some cash.
thanks in advance guys.
