So My current system is as follows:

A8-6600k (OC'ed to 4.5ghz)
HIS R9-270x Ice Q2 Turbo
2x4gb HyperXFury 1866mhz
FM2A88X Extreme 4+
700w Bronze 85%

So someone is gonna give me another HIS R9-270x and i was wondering if there would be complications if i crossfire it with my existing R9-270x

yes your cpu is not good enough to keep up if you CF those cards, dont expect much of an improvement at all in cpu bound games


make sure the psu is decent with the pcie cables you will need for the two cards

I don't foresee 'complications' besides configuring your system. It just might not help much, if at all. In the same way that simply upgrading a videocard doesn't guarantee increased performance, adding a second videocard doesn't guarantee increased performance. There are a lot of variables to consider, including the crossfire support the games you play will have, if any.
