Budget: I have 920,000

Location: What do you mean? Where I live? Sorry, I'm not really a tech guy.

Socket: I have no idea.

Form Factor: I have Special Edition White Graphite Series 600T Mid- Tower case which supports Mini ITX, Micro ATX, ATX, and E-ATX but I'm going with ATX.

Uses: I'm going to use it for gaming and schoolwork.

Do motherboards that have PCI-E 3.0 (or 2.0) support Crossfire? In the future, I might buy another Matrix.

location so we can know what stores you have accesses to 

and for socket we need to know

eg intel if you were to use a 4670k lga 1150

and if you were to use a fx-8350 a am3 or am3+ motherboard

Wait I think I know what you mean by socket. I think I'm going to use the Corsair AX850.

920,000 USD?

No. The ax860 is the psu. The socket as in the socket your motherboard and cpu uses. 

For example, the 4670k uses the lga 1150 socket. 

Do motherboards that have PCI-E 3.0 (or 2.0) support Crossfire? In the future, I might buy another Matrix.

Some, not all. 

pci-e 1 should work, but I hope he will get a modern MB

It would bottleneck the gpu unlike pci-e 2.0.

I think he means $920... Reading this thread makes me question why people put in the effort of actually responding to these things. I think that at least a proper first post with proper questions would be adequate.

 I mean seriously what are we supposed to say to that.
