[QUOTE="randj89, post: 483714, member: 22081"] I could've upgraded to fury x but the are just small differences and I'm not paying double the amount of money to get just 50 extra megahertz. Money difference is about $300...... NO THANK YOU! Crossfire is a better option for me. Crossfire splits the job 1 card has to do between both of them. For example one card render shadows and the other card render highlights. It's team work and it puts less stress on the primary card creating less heat and creating better performance without sacrificing resolution. I'm playing on 1080p which is not stressful for the card but I also play on 4k 60hz and let me tell you for 4k you need crossfire or SLI if you don't want to make your card suffer. Before I upgrade all my 4k rendering was pain to my eyes I thought with 8 gigs on 1 card was enough to handle that.
