I think only one 2GB toxic card is enough to play bf4 in ultra 1080 .

I know this thread has been solved but i have a question. Will fx 6300 @4.3 be enough to crossfire? thank you.

yes both cards will run fine, especially when mantle is released, both cards should be able to run at a minimum of 60fps with all settings maxed, just make sure you have enough cooling to support the cards


Hi what is mantle. Cooling af120 at the bottom of the case pushing cool air up to the cards my case is a nzxt phantom 530 white


A way of coding a game that amd are implementing sometime in the near future it will start with battlefeild that will offload a lot more data to the gpu/cpu/ram at the same time instead of just the gpu which in theory should boost performance significantly. an update is expected soon to bf4 for mantle


Do you think crossfire was a bad idea ... Should I of brought one r9 290 instead?


its not a bad idea just some people dont recommend it, if it works then it works fantastic but if it dosent then people complain however i havent had problems in the past, also the 290x is sold out quite a bit and also has issues of its own


Would a i5 4670k be okay to back these card up


yeah it would be fine, you wont see a bottleneck or performance drop


What do you mean bottleneck sorry all new to me


its cool, basically a bottleneck is caused by a few thing

1. the cpu is too powerful and the gpu is poor so the gpu cant process all the data from the cpu meaning peformance decrease (most common reason to upgrade gpu)
2. the opposite the gpu isint receiving enough data to keep the game running at a high frame rate(reason to upgrade cpu)
3.ram/hdd transfer speeds/clock speeds are slow meaning cpu cant access data or store it in time(this is pretty uncommon)

hope this helps

Thank you all for your help
a c 429 U Graphics card
a c 260 À AMD

Its not really a "bad" idea, but a single card is better. The problem with the 290 is the thermal issues.
