Is it possible to crossfire an Asus Readeon 7770 HD 2GB GDDR5 card with this R9 270x card or nah? I have a 750 W power supply

No, you may have success with 7970 + r9 270x but absolutely not with 7770. They have different GPUs. Dump 7770, it is too slow

Unfortunately, according to the ATI Crossfire compatibility charts on the AMD website these two cards are too far apart to be successfully Crossfired. Your R9 card can only be hooked up with another R9 or an R7 graphics card.

You can crossfire it with a dedicated graphics card if it is one of the two... i think radeon hd 6570 or 6750 it will say on the box the cpu comes with. you could also just get a better graphics card which i recommend for higher end games. like an radeon R7. you may still be able to combine the graphics card and the GPU i havent tried yet

That would definitely be enough for 2 or 3 of these cards in Crossfire. 3 might be pushing it depending on the rest of your rig. I would suggest googling power supply calculator and checking your build if your are going with 3 cards.

if your power supply is a 500W or above you will be able to power the card. Provided the rest of your system isn't low end or super dirt old, you shouldn't be bottlenecked or have to worry about hardware compatability.If you mean software wise like drivers, well Nvidia cards like to play well with eachother so having an Nvidia card in there and swapping to another Nvidia should be fine if you do not wish to reload your OS.

Works fine with my sapphire radeon 5770 with 1 gb gddr5 I don't see why it shouldn't. Pick up an aftermarket cooling unit though as some of the newer games have taken me up near 220 degrees farenheit.

Hey Ronel, I have a 750 watt power supply that I am using with this card. However, a standard power supply one with no less than 350 watts should be enough to run the card with no problems. I would recommend getting a 400 to 450 watt power supply if you will be using this card for gaming.

Yes, the EVGA 500B 500 W 80PLUS is compatible with the Asus M5A97 Motherboard, and will also be able to power the R9 270, though you may want to consider going for a higher Wattage rating for a power supply powering any of the R9 GPUs, for slightly more stable performance. However, this PSU would work fine with it, that's not a necessity, just a recommendation.

This is a really great card. however, your concern is correct. I wouldn't try running it on a power supply that is less then 700w just to be safe. I currently run a 1100w Therm, and have had no problems.

It will work just fine. You could run 2 or probably even 3 in crossfire with that psu. 600 is already more than enough. Cpu wont be a problem either

I looked up that build and I don't know that the power supply is beefy enough, 250 or 300w is the size I found for it. 400w is the minimum for this card I believe. (mine is 450w and I have had no issues with the card at all.) I can't recommend it for you on that computer, because it would likely cause issues for you. Sorry. :/

According to AMD, any discrete R7 card will work, preferably the R7 250 or 260, the 270, 280, and 290 will work as well, the R7X cards are overkill. One card should do the trick, you can CrossFire if you want but again, overkill. :-P

Absolutely, it even comes with a crossfire cable. It's a great card for the price, and performs well if your looking to upgrade an older machine. It does however have some issues with overheating. So be sure to download a program like MSI Afterburner which allows for manual adjustment of fan speeds. Hope this was helpful to you!

It depends on what you're really planning to run for your video card. I use this card with two Radeon HD 7790 1GB cards in CrossfireX and it runs fine. But if you were to go any higher than that with video cards, you're going to want a bigger PSU.

AMD has moved to XDMA CrossFire, what this means is that all communication between crossfired cards occurs over the PCIE bus as opposed to seperate connectors. This has resulted in fewer frame time variances and less stuttering in crossfire configs.In short, Yes. Although you may want a beefy PSU.

The motherboard that I used had already a PCI Express 3.0. I do not recall the video board needing any special connection to either the motherboard or power. I do not know how to crossfire with AMD A10-6700/ w 8670D I/G. I used a motherboard that is using an Intel I5 processor.

4X150 Watt 8-pin PCI Express power connector is required for CrossFireX™ system. Seems to me your psu is good enough.

The card is voltage locked so there's no way to adjust voltage. Runs well on 650W PSU but it artifacts when crossfire as I am now finding out. Per AMD 's recommendations, 750W minimum for crossfire. More if you are overclocking the GPU and CPU.
