I have a Asus Rog Strix B250F mobo and it support only crossfire is it true or i can SLI NVIDIA cards . So i need a card for Sli or crossfire which the cheapest one . Plz suggest me atleast 3 cards from price low to high
My processor is i7 7700 (non k) and 16 gb ram . And suggest me psu for sli or crossfire
 
Solution


1080p a 1060 is fine
While that board "supports" xfire and not SLI, there is a reason. SLI requires at least an x8 lane to operate, xfire only takes x4.
My advice, dont.
There is zero point in running Xfire on that board, and very few reasons to run it on any board.

Get the best GPU you can afford, thats a much better option.
 
Don't think of crossfire or SLI as a cheap way to get great performance, cause it's not. For getting the best performance in most games for the lowest cost, you're better off buying the best card you can afford and that your power supply can handle. What's the point of buying two cheap cards to crossfire them if the performance you get isn't enough to play a game?

Thanks guys for your replies .. I wont use xfire or sli on that . Please suggest me any card that is capable of running all the latest games on 1080p at max or very high settings for atleast 2 years . My budget is Rs 25000
 
From lowest price to highest: A 3gb 1060 is fine for 1080p now. The 3gb MIGHT be a factor, then again might not. A 6gb 1060 would be a bit faster and has more memory so in theory it should perform better over a longer period of time. An RX 480 or 580 probably cost the most now due to the mining related shortage. In some games, DX 12 or Vulcan using games, these cards perform better. In theory if DX 12 or Vulcan become important, these cards will perform better over the long term, maybe. Hey, predicting the future is not an exact science.

Thanks @dontlistentome for now ill get a 1060 3gb and start saving for a gtx 1080ti and a 4k monitor but the question is that, will my i7 7700 (non k) with hyperx 16gb ddr4 2400 (2×8gb) bottleneck the gtx 1080ti ?
