Is 2 R9 270's crossfire worth it?
Ok First let me start off by saying Im able to get 2 r9 270s for $100 Each thats $200 to crossfire and put them in my system. I want to know if thats a really good deal? considering i dont have any more then $200 to put into my videocard is there a better deal then that?

Or Tier 2B as it's still kinda good. A good one would be the EVGA SuperNOVA 750 B2 at the minimum.

2 270s WILL allow you to play on high quality, but it also depends on your internet connection (I think). It's THE best deal you can get for now, but make sure the 2 cards are working:)

Well, if OP is looking for temporary performance (1-3 years), then the CFX way is the one to go. If he/she wants long-lasting performance, then the 760 is the way to go. it'll be slower than the 270 CFX, but not after you SLI two of them together.

Its a good deal but crossfire is very buggy and a lot of games don't suppourt it. I'd still take a single 760 and sli down the road over crossfire 270s

That would be the best you can get for 200$. On the nVidia side, you can get a 760, but 2 270s would crush it. Go for it!
