Are Crossfire 280x overkill for 1080p gaming?
It's not overkill at all.
Like others have said, if you really want to push them then buy a 1440p monitor OR a 144/120Hz monitor. See if you can try them both to see which you prefer. I think it's important not to forget high refresh rate monitors because they are so smooth if you can drive them. I play games at 144Hz if I can and it feels amazing and very responsive. The only problem is, I've become very sensitive to frame drops and I can't play games at below 90fps anymore (I can, but it hurts my brain ). I started playing borderlands 1 again the other day and realised that there was a frame cap at 60fps immediately. My eyes started to hurt because of the 'stuttering' at 60fps and blablabla...
Just see if you can try different types of monitors before you buy them. I realise most people prefer more pixels, but I am never going to upgrade to higher resolutions until monitors can run at 144/120Hz without tinkering and, more importantly, graphics cards are powerful enough to drive 2K at 120Hz on high settings in games.
