hey guys,

So I am running a MSI amd R9 270 in my rig. I picked up a cheap $10 card: a PowerColor Ati radeon 5450. If I throw this card in, will it do anything useful?

Thanks.

Yeah both at once. Can you have two separate cards without crossfire or SLI? Like I wouldn't be able to crossfire the R9 270 with the HD 5450, but can I run them simultaneously? And would it improve the way games run?

Thanks
