I hate my life... just bought dual 290x's and liquid cooled them because it was cheaper than a 295x2 about a month ago -_-

Ouch!!  That hurts my wallet, I wish I waited to buy this.

Great card, some games are better with a AMD and others are better with Nvidia.  But always remember, don't count on using multi-gpu config for new titles.

Two gtx 970's would cost about the same, use 200 watts less power, and outputs less heat. I think its cooler to tell people you have an r9 295x2 rather than sli 970s though!

Yeah the power requirement for 295x2 turns me off. I'd have to upgrade my PSU.

Can I crossfire with that GPU?

 

It's already crossfired. It has two 290x gpu's on a single card.

It would work, but you'd need a lot of power.

Ah, I might just get it. I don't play new titles on release very often, only exceptions are BLTPS, and Witcher 3, GTA 5 when they finally come out. My wallet is itching haha.

add a second one for quad crossfire. Wish you could add 4 cards (all with dual GPUs), that would destroy 4K surround
