Depending on the game, the 770 or 280x will out-perform each other. But in general, they are about the same in performance.

You should probably get a new PSU, and is the new motherboard for your phenom x6? Or is it for a future CPU that you haven't bought yet.

can you tell me about crossfire and SLI.
what is mean pci express X16 and X8 what the diffrent and how it does effect on sli or crossfire. And what better sli or crossfire on M6a99
or they are the same.
And what is better get M5a99 with SLI gtx 770 or M5a97 with crossfire r9 280x

DO you think the Asus M5A99FX best one.
I'm completly lost help please.

So if it is X8 or above it's good. but the sli and crossfire same.
I mean is it better to but dual GTX 770 SLI or dual R9 280x Crossfire.
