Firstly, here's my build;
http://pcpartpicker.com/p/sxfc
================================================================
CPU: Intel Core i5-3470 3.2GHz Quad-Core Processor
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-H77-DS3H ATX LGA1155 Motherboard
Memory: Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Storage: Crucial M4 128GB 2.5" Solid State Disk
Storage: Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
Video Card: Sapphire Radeon HD 7870 2GB Video Card
Case: Antec Three Hundred Two ATX Mid Tower Case
Power Supply: Corsair Builder 600W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply
Optical Drive: Lite-On iHAS124-04 DVD/CD Writer
================================================================
I'm aiming to upgrade my computer but I have some questions to be sure they are the right decisions
I mainly wanted to have a larger GPU, but they are too expensive, so I thought I would crossfire with another 7870, as well as getting more ram
===Questions===
- can the Motherboard handle it? Even fit the two?
- would I need to upgrade my CPU?
-do the GPUs have to be manufactured from the same company to crossfire?
-I have two displays, do both need to be connected to one or one to each card?
==============
Thank you for all your responses I will answer them with all the information I may have left out
