Okay so currently i have the 860k with one 270x toxic. I was gonna buy another 270x but wondering will my cpu bottleneck under the sli configuration?
 
Here is a list of the CPUs that your motherboard supports: http://www.gigabyte.com/support-downloads/cpu-support-popup.aspx?pid=4716

Looks like your best option is the A10-7850k, but it may still bottleneck xfire 270's...

The other option is switching to a FX chip and motherboard, or an Intel chip and motherboard.

PS: We still need the make and model of power supply that you are running. There is a very good chance you will need a new one.

CM extreme 2 725.


Edit: I might just upgrade to a 970 because i was just reading that not a lot of games support crossfire and it would be a waste of money people say in long run. So i'm just gonna go with the 970. Is there any cheap build for the 970? I don't need ssd and i've already got a case,
