Hi There
I am set on buying a 3440x1440p Ultrawide Monitor, although prior to making this decision i purchased a R9 290X 8Gb Reference card with a G10/Kraken cooler attached. I bought it from a friend who was upgrading for $140USD / $200AUD.
Obviously i realize that a 290X isn't going to cut it. Do you think the best approach would be to source another R9 290x or R9 390 and crossfire them? I'm not fully across the whole crossfire/SLI thing yet.
Or would the best thing to do be try and sell the R9 290x and maybe get a GTX 980ti which will stretch my budget and cause me to downgrade other parts used in the build.
I live in Australia, any aussies on here got any idea if
a). A R9 290X 8G (Kraken G10/X31 Cooler) would sell on ebay
b). Approx price in AUD?
l could pick up a brand new R9 390 in Australia for 400, (Ebay prices for used ones are the same price). Or 980ti for $800 - 900.
P.S Aaarrrggg wish shipping from US wasn't so expensive, would be so much cheaper even with shit exchange rate.
