Well According to GPU-Z my R7-260e is a direct x 12 with 11.1 features. So thats good news and also explains why it runs alot of my games smoothly

That's not a reason to go with Radeon. Crossfire isn't as horrible as it used to be (the same with SLI), but it's still not a very good idea.

Make sure to quote or tag me (@JoostinOnline) or I won't see your response!

1 single better card will always make better sense than 2 worse cards in crossfire/sli

 

I agree with @JoostinOnline that for your budget and expectations the best choice would be a second hand GTX 750 Ti or something around this area, the GTX 760 consumes fairly more power for not all that much more performance but it has been around your price range as well as for lately.

GTX 560/560Ti if you find a used one.

Don't buy 500 series Fermi they are discontinuing the driver support in Jan 2019 https://www.pcgamer.com/nvidia-will-no-longer-make-gpu-drivers-for-32-bit-oses-and-fermi-graphics-cards/

 

You can get GTX 670 off ebay for around $80 if get FTW or Gigabyte windforce it was faster than GTX 680 cards.

Or get a windforce 680/770 for maxmium lulz. I just sold my windforce 770 for $150 cad but that was during the tail end of inflated gpu pricing and canadian pricing in general is higher even before conversion.

I don't think you can crossfire those gpus though. It's not from the same family or even architecture. One is GCN and another one is Terascale.

Yeah I found out I can Get any Radeon R7 series GPU and it will crossfire as they still make Drivers for them. Currently according to GPU-Z my R7 260e is a DX12 with 11.1 features. How this is i dont know but thats what GPU-Z says.So if i want to Crossfire 2 cards i would go with another R7 series gpu thats DX12 and has more than 1gb of VRAM.
