All AMD cards are able to be crossfired as long as they are the same card

They should come with the crossfire bridges, although i know that some of the newer AMD cards crossfire straight through the motherboard. Also, make sure your motherboard is Crossfire compatiable if you havent already.

as long as the motherboard says that it is Crossfire Compatiable, you should be fine(unless there is an actual hardware failure)

my main question is will this build play battlefield 4, league of legends, Stream good quality, and play titanfall on max settings pretty well? I don't know much about Overclocking and wont do much benchmark I just really want to enjoy my gaming experience and the best way to do that...

definitely on the 1 GPU, you will have no problem doing all those things with a 770, and if you want you can change the case back, thats just his suggestion in the build that he gave. you can honestly go with the two video cards you originally had instead of a 770. its your budget/money, its just a suggestion.

2 270x's in crossfire will give you ~50% improvement over a 770.

 

Crossfire can have issues, isn't supported in every game, and can be an overall pain.

It also costs more power supply wise.

Something to consider.

yeah

well it just depends on what youre using the cards for. For what youre doing, using one card would be just fine. you could essentially get 2 770s also for around the same price as 2 270x. Now, you can get 2 270x with a higher amount of Vram for cheaper or you can go a little more pricier for a better performance with the 2 770s

as in the 770 vs the 2 270x?

 

but which one would perform better?

The 280x will outperform all of them
