I'am looking for an upgrade for my pc.
i got around 300euro to spend.
I have a
fx6300
sapphire r9 270(non x)
asus m5a78l mobo
1 tb western digital green
1 tb western digital blue
650w psu.

I was thinking about getting a r9 280x 3gb for 260 euro
Or upgrade the mobo to a sabertooth 990fx and get another r9 270 for 300 euro

What will be the best option?
Thank you in advance

p.s. i dont need a processor upgrade will get an fx 8350 soon

Performance wise, if me I'd go the 270 Xfire and better mobo - the XFire itself is better than the 280X - check and be sure your PSU can handle the pair in XFire... the better mobo would be a bonus
