Crossfire cooling questions

[FreezeFlyte]

Hey, I'm planning on running two Asus R9 270X gpus in crossfire on a Gigabyte GA-990fxa UD3 mobo in a Bitfenix Ghost case. I have two  AF120mm fans in the front, and one 120mm fan on the bottom for intake. and two SP120mm puling through a radiator and another 120mm out the back running as exhaust. My question is will I need to invest in more cooling if i run thes two cards in crossfire?

probably not

No, but get a single card, like a 780, 290

I already have one 270x so i can't afford to put out 400+ for another graphics card.

i would say to do it, but radeon cards are so damn expensive now, it would be better to sell it and buy another card

2 270x's is cheaper than a 290x and will give you a better hash rate if you're mining. So it's not a bad choice

It's kewl dawg! You won't need any more cooling than that, you could get away with a lot less if you had to.

Just make sure they're not pressed up against each other, that they have at least 1 spare pci lane between them for airflow

You will be fine .Plenty of cooling going on in your case.Just remember the top card will run warmer than the bottom card.When i ran my 7970 Ghz Editions in X-fire the top card ran @ 80c while the bottom ran at 65c under full load.

Oh ok, then yea another 270x would be a better option
