Is This upgrade worth it?

[godzilla15533]

I have recently been researching on Newegg and Amazon, and have decided to upgrade my pc, i wanted to know if it´s actually worth it, or not.

im gonna buy Powercolor r9 380 on crossfire (that´s 2 of them), an intel i7 5820k, a gigabyte motherboard and 16gb Ram to do some HEAVY editing.

 

Is this upgrade from my old r9 270x 2gb worth it, or should i buy another GPU?

 

i´m not worried about the CPU or RAM, only about the GPU, since i wasn´t sure wether to buy r9 380 or r9 280x (Because of DX12 compatibility issues in r9 2** series).

 

 

P.S. Becasue of some shitty law in my country i can only do shipments below 190 dollars, so the GPU´s have to be below 190, not all of them combined, but individually (e.g. i can buy 4 r9 380´s since i can order them on separate shipments, each shipment being less than 190 dollars .

 

Fell free to leave any suggestions about what RAM i should use (DDR4), or what MOBO.

 

thx!

Buy a 5820K and a 390X.

 

Or a 4690K and a 980 Ti.

The Official Czex i could, but both the 390x an 980ti are past the 190 dollar rule.

 

That´s why i´m having trouble.

The 380s aren't going to be too big of an upgrade, the CPU is fine if you really need a CPU that strong, but keep your current GPUs, go to germany or italy when possible and smuggle back a 390X/Fury when you get a chance or buy a 40" 4k display and upgrade your GPU later, later

What are you using your PC for?
