You aren't getting two cards with that budget.

Unless they're not high end.,

Give me a break with the build you did SAV1OUR. No wonder he couldn't get 2 cards with all the crap you threw in his build. He definitely can get a PSU for less than $99 that would do the job. Also a $99 case? Oh and why not add an SSD when video card power is more important to him. Then you say for him to get a liquid cooler when air would be $50 less and still get him awesome temps. Seriously if he wants 2 x GTX 770s or a GTX 780 Ti card he can do that if he doesn't listen to you. Easily could shave $200 off your build you put up for him.

Too many ****ing games!  Back log 4 life! :S

Yes, with two LOWER END cards, you can get two... 1 High end > 2 Lower End.

he said or 780ti the 290x pretty close in performance for the price, read the title he wants high end cards if he wants crossfire or sli hes going to have to do lower end

Make sure you look at different stores online and price match and order from NCIX or someone like that. It will save you money. This PCPartPicker application is far from perfect when trying to save money and put together a rig.

... and by the way going with R9 290x cards it puts you over budget

Are you going to be mining at all btw?
