Solution
that is a very broad question, it depends on what you need it to do. it can run any game on max settings 1600p aslong as your cpu doesnt bottleneck it and your psu can handle it. personally, i think the 290 non-X version is a better deal, or the gtx 780 if you dont use multiple monitors at high resolutions.

The specs are
1 x PCIe 3.0 x16 slot
1 x PCIe 2.0 x16 slot
PCI_E4 supports up to PCIe 2.0 x4 speed
2 x PCIe 2.0 x1 slots
3 x PCI slots

Will PCIe 2.0 x16 and R9 290 degrade performance on crossfire?
