RAD Space

Hey guys!

Super bad question: I am limited in regard to my case. I have space for a 280 and a 240 (2x280 if I get rid of my CD Drive, but I love my Command and Conquer games too much...) and I have a 7800x and two 980 Kingpin cards (all will be overclocked to a varying degree, fairly modest). Think the 280 and the 240 will be enough? Or should I just get two 280's at the sacrifice of my drive?
Also before you guys talk about mounting ISOs of the CD games... I have attempted this for a long time and never succeeded, if someone has insight to this PLEASE let me know. I would love to play my CnC games on machines without a CD Drive.

Thanks in advance!

David

Either combo will be plenty. Assuming you plays games that use both cards. 

 

Do you still play them online or using something that simulates the online network? Used cd cracks for solo mode. Bought the whole Cnc pack on origin so don’t need a disk now.
