Why don't you just get a gtx 1070?

Because dual 480's is better than a 1070? Duh??

i need help and how do i crossfire https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/jj6CFd just need pc for arma 3

Crossfire is easy, automatic when you install 2 cards

Honestly, wait till the ZEN platform releases, CPU prices are going to drop so hard.

im a amd fan boy

forget about being a fanboy, crossfire/SLI has lots of microstuttering, more heat, higher power requirements and not all games support it, not worth it at all.

It is better in performance, but you can't upgrade to 3 way crossfire, and 2 rx 480s make more noise, and more heat.

While this is true the latest generation has improved significantly over that of the previous.
Crossfire will have more compatibility issues than a single card but will be far more powerful that a 1070 when it works.
It's a choice you have to make
Honestly I can't think of a scenario when you would need 3 480's BUT you can CF past 2 cards, just can't SLI for Nvidia

I've ran crossfireX sadly many many modern games don't simply care you are using corssfireX and I played countless games (if not all) with the second card sitting at 0% utilization.

 

Just something to consider, you could get an even better card by saving that extra cash from the second card.

Thanks!

Read Build Plan Thread Recommendations (Please read before posting). Then modify OP or create new thread with the required information. This will let people know what you need and how much you can spend. Likely you will get some decent suggestions.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.
