    Things like R9 290 are gems that happened once in a while imo
    Okay I swear now you're purposely tempting me to upgrade or crossfire. Need....to.... control....

    LOL I'm tempted to crossfire myself since I am running on 3 monitors, 1x 1440p and 2x 1080p. Single 290 seems sufficient for now but might want some future buffer in case I drop the 2 1080p for the same model of 1440p and do some eyefinity

    Too bad FFXIV doesn't support crossfire/SLI as of now.

    I'm using 2 7950's with 3 1080p monitors for FF14 and I can tell you I get 100% usage for both cards and much higher performance when I enable crossfire.

    What you are doing is enabling the 2nd GPU for enough VRAM for your 3 monitor eyeinfinity?

    If single monitor, crossfire or not doesn't make a diff.
