Which is better? two 4gig rx 480 in cross fire vs gtx 1080 and 1070. Does the cpu brand affect the result. Does the crossfire represent a synchronising between the two cards ( picking what the graphics needs) or just a sum of vram and everything? Note single 1080 and single 1070 not sli

1070 or 1080, Crossfire/SLI is not supported by all games, and massive power draw with two 480's. 1070 is good enough for maxed gaming at 1440p.

RAM is not added up in Multi GPU. Also always go single card solution over Multi GPU if possible. Even with lower fps from the single card solution it can still run better then CF/SLI. Only reason currently for multi GPU is for 4k Ultra high fps or larger resolutions then that. The rest under that is achieveable with single card setups.

The object of life is not to be on the side of the majority, but to escape finding oneself in the ranks of the insane.
