Im wanting to do some upgrades to my desktop and I have a few ideas of what I want to get. I would love to hear what you guys think I should get ? Here are the specs of what I have now !

Asus Formula V am3+ mobo
Phenom 2 x4 cpu
corsair tx750 psu
segate 1tb 7200 hdd
2x hd 6850's in crossfire
64g crucial ssd
128g Samsung ssd
corsair h100 cpu cooler
16g corsair vengeance 1600mhz...

I have been thinking ab an fx 8320 and a r9 290.... Any help or ideas would be great.

I agree with what you listed no reason to get advice.

A reasonable plan, but the R9-290 card prices are currently inflated because of the bitcoin mining phenomena.
You might find a GTX780 more attractively priced.

Given your setup it's hard to recommend anything else. Would be nice if AMD would release steamroller based FX cores but oh well.

soo is the gtx 780 ab the same as the r9 290 ? and is the r9 290x worth the extra money over the r9 290 ??? im also getting a bigger ssd for the os im thinking a 240g or a maybe a 400g.. i cant belive how much the r9 290 s are wow !!! that's bs iv never had a GeForce card before and would my psu be plenty to push my cpu and any of them cards ?
