I am looking to build a PC for the next generation. I've looked some benchmarks for 7870's on crossfire and so far I can only find battlefield 3 and 4 benchmarks. Can my build run future games on ultra settings above 60 FPS. Anybody have 7870's on crossfire and if so what is the performance. (benchmarks I have seen for crossfire 7870's are 90-100 FPS on battlefield 3) http://pcpartpicker.com/user/TrevorPhilips.inc/saved/2Y...

They will perform very well however crossfireX has problems like compatibility,stuttering sometimes running at 2fps or something.
Single gpu is mostly better or SLI (Nvdia cards)
For that price get a GTX770 and SLI in the future.
It will perform a bit slower but still max all games.

Get this psu since its better quality:

No SLI though in the future... but the CX750 is not very good.
Maybe spend $20 more for the xfx 750w 80+ silver if you want SLI

If you are going to multiple video cards, go nvidia. Gtx 770s are really solid bang for the buck right now.

And crossfire has issues right now
