I was wanting to get another xfx r9 380 cards but they are a lot more difficult to get on eBay. what performance would I get if I crossfire two of these? I have the 4gb models. Final Note: would it be worth it to watercool both if I did crossfire it

Multi GPU doesn't often have very good scaling, but it would look pretty awesome if you water cooled them both.

 

btw what CPU are you rocking?

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

Crossfire isnt worth it in general, if you want more power than just get the best single gpu you can afford as both crossfire and sli doesnt scale well in games
