So, As you folks know those w-2's are hot off the press and soon will be turned into liquid money.

Video For the whole thing

Road to 4k Gaming with Dual monitors.
Current:
Ryzen 7 1700 @3.9 1.3v
Strix RX ROG RX580 T8G gpu
16GB 3000MhZ RAM (2x 8gb)
1TB Hard Drive Black (hidden)

Proposed:
Ryzen 1800x or 1900X???? (Not sure whats the difference for 300$ sway me!) Liquid Cooled of course
2X RX580 Crossfire Liquid Cooled (red coolant) New Mobo????
4X 8GB 3000MhZ Ram 2 black and 2 red or all 4 black?????
500GB SSD Hidden one or a on the board one???
Custom hard line cooling for cpu and gpu's.

Questions!
When cooling dual gpus should i bridge it or run it separate or make it look bridge and run it separate?

Should i get a bigger board? Will the current one run crossfire? Do i need PCIE X16 for both GPU?

Comment here or on the video either works thanks folks

Originally i really wanted to do that, or get 2 56's:
I can get 2 RX 580s for the price of one vega 64 as much as i would like to. I have one 580 already so its cheaper for me to do that i guess i could sell it but the misses got it for me for Christmas this year. Anyway, 2 580s runnin hot can do just as well as a vega 64, at 600$ vs 900$ Then im dealing with availability, because for some reason Its really hard to find vega 64's or even 56's for that matter. The original goal was to run 56's in CF liquid but couldnt find a 56 for less than 700$ compared to when they first came out they were around 500. As where i can go down to frys and grab a half dozen rx 580s the strix ROG ones for 360$

I really do like the 580 its still a pretty new release card. I am gonna be a while till its all said and done maybe amd seeds the market again who knows, I'd like to wait maybe till ryzen II's come out but not sure on when that comes out so we shall see, Thanks for the input!
