I'm looking to get a second graphics card. But im not sure if i would be able to crossfire with my current card the vapor x 7970 ghz edition. Can the r9 series crossfire with the 7970 ghz edition? Which r9 card should i go with.
The reason i'm looking to crossfire is i bought a 1440p monitor and my games aren't running at 60fps like it was when i was playing at 1080p.
The games i will be playing would be watch dogs, assassins creed 4, and all of the newer "Next Gen"games.
I would like to play certain games with the directx 11 + Physx too. But is that only with the nvidia series cards?
Thanks in Advance
