r7 250 1gb ddr5

i think that a dual r7 250 will give better performance than a single r7 260x ?

I haven't got time to check but I think you can Crossfire pretty much anything from AMD, I'm sure my mate said that I could Crossfire a pair of HD 5450's or something lol

 

But I wouldn't have thought it would be much better than a single R7-260X, you'll be chewing through more power and also more heat will be generated.

You can most likely crossfire, I mean it is a Re-badge of the HD 7750, and it can crossfire too

You're getting an i7-4770K? I hope you realize that your board is an H87 which means you can only overclock it via the vcore, which is a bad thing. You should not touch the vcore at all. You can only overclock via the multipliers using a Z87 board. If you can't pony up more cash for a Z87 board, get a regular i7-4770 instead. Besides, even if you got a Z87 board, cooling an overclocked Haswell is a pain in the ass. It's not as OC friendly as a Sandy Bridge or Ivy Bridge.

Also, I assume you currently own an R7 250. I suggest you sell it and try to get at least an R7 265 instead. A single R9 270 will be faster than two Crossfired R7 250s.
