2 R9 380 4GB vs 390

SteamOverlay

So i would like a little upgrade 

What is better 2 4gb 380 (i already  have 1)

Or 1 amd 390

 

Money Isnt really a problem just if there isnt a massive difference then it may not be worth it

If you already have one 380 I'd get another one unless you can find someone to buy it from you at a fair price.

2x 380 wins when the game has good Crossfire support, 390 wins when linked GPU support is bad.

For the sake of software support and such, the 390. The dual 380s might be better in some benchmarks, but it's not worth the added risks when the 390 is such a good card.

If you really aren't satisfied with one 380 I'd sell it and buy a 390.

Don't ask to ask, just ask... please 🤨

After owning a crossfire setup for 2 years, I can say in my experience its not worth the hassle. I sold both cards for a r9 390 and have had trouble free gaming since.

Never Xfire low end cards, just get a 390 a stronger single is better than two weaker ones even if the weaker can give better fps when it's works but it's a lot of hassle you have to deal and again you should just never go dual low/mid range. A 290 should be the minimum for Xfire unless you upgrading resolution Xfire or SLI is pointless especially since it's low end cards
