As the others are pointing out you won't benefit much from getting another 260X. 

The scaling isn't perfect and you will not get insane performance improvements. I've seen people getting better framerates with an single 270X than two 260X's.

So right now I have an XFX R7 260X. If I upgrade would I be better off going Crossfire XFX R7 260X or selling my XFX R7 260X and getting a single R9 280X or something around there.
