3 graphics card worth running?

hardeepgill247 · Jul 30, 2016

my original plan was to run only 1 r7 360 in my rig but amazon accidentally sent me 3. Is running 3 cards worth it because it has been a pain to find a case and motherboard that fits 3 cards in my budget. I've always heard that crossfire causes stuttering and that it is not worth it

100% no. Crossfire mid range cards is usually awful let alone low/mid which the 360 is. And 3 would be worse. Scaling with 3 cards generally not ideal. Plus the combined power draw and heat.

Two would be fine (with a decent CPU) in games that have a CrossFire profile, and if the motherboard can support x8x8 in the two PCIe slots.

Three is very troublesome typically, and not worth it unless you're just messing around. I definitely wouldn't go buying equipment to accommodate it.

The r7 360 doesn't support 3 way Crossfire only 2 way, so that should make finding a board easier. Support and performance will depend on the game.
