crossfire with a10-7850k and xfx r9-270x

amiller2134 · Oct 2, 2014

I bought a new a10-7850k and an xfx r9-270x, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150686.

If you go to the link you can see about half way down that it says this video card is dual graphics ready with APU graphics. I was under the impression that the 7850k is only compatible with r7 240 or 250?

Actually it cant be crossfired at all with the A10 7850K. Only the R7 series.

do you know why it would say that then on newegg?

amiller2134 :

It's ready to crossfire with another card but not an APU. No idea why it says that but you cant do it.

what will happen if I try to?

You simply can`t try it because it is not possible, however you can run your GPU without disabling your integreted GPU.

It is best for programs which runs on HSA that you will find a significant boost in performance.

will this apu run this gpu good? I have read a lot on how the 7850k wont run better gpu's that good

See it for yourself!

I have that APU and I run GTX 970, so far so good.

amiller2134 · Oct 2, 2014

what kind of benefits will I get while using that video card while using this apu? in terms of the HSA specifically?

iamlegend · Oct 2, 2014

This APU is specifically designed to support HSA architecture BUT this technology is underdevelop and the application of HSA is limited to certain softwares only.

In short HSA is on going.
I think you can search HSA in the web to get more information.
