Has anyone had an experience with running this card in a crossfire setup?

What would you like to know about a CF set up? I have it set up in CF and my brother has it crossfired with a 7950. Both setups are far beyond optimal graphics with not a single issue yet... coolest crossfired cards I've ever owned.

Crossfire is for ATI video cards. If you mean SLI, then yes. It supports SLI.

No because this is an nvidia cards crossfire will only work with 7950s but the video ram can be different and the brand can as be different but it is best to pair identical cards

Yes it will be enough, you could even run it in crossfire and not see a bottleneck.

well the intigrated graphics part is kind of a waste if you are going with a high end graphics card the crossfire only seems to work on low end R7 250 gpu. I think an fx processor socket am3+ might save you money unless you want something that is 65 watt

I have the R9-270 setup in crossfire. When I checked out the other R9 cards, I found this to be a very good deal considering the cost. So far they are solid performers and I am able to play all my games with max settings. Haven't tried some of the newer titles but I am confident in saying you will not be disappointed.

these cards no longer use crossfire cable, they do crossfire through PCI lanes, and I recall a review using a 4770k OC and two of these monsters on a corsair 1500w and it wasn't enough on some games at 4k, so you may need more depending on the resolution you will play on. And dont forget to get a beefy surge protector

I run two of them in crossfire on an 850w corsair power supply and haven't had any issues. I can run skyrim fine, but while the framerates are good, occasionally there is a lot of stuttering, mostly occurs when you are indoors close to walls. It's really weird, but I think it could be an issue with crossfire. 1 of these should handle Skyrim just fine at 1080p if you have a decent CPU.

No, first of all CrossFire is AMD only. SLI only works for the same cards and only if they have the same memory.

I ran it with a 300w and it ran fine. However, for the price, there are better cards you can get, like the 7750 and 7770 that aren't very expensive, but perform very well.

The HD7970 is a rebranded R9 280x thus it should have no problem running in crossfire.

Greetings, good question, honestly I can not answer it because I dont have much experience with SLI / CrossFire, and I dont want to give a mediocre response (sorry) but as far I know, You need the same video card, same model, to do the SLI or CrossFire.

no, crossfire only works in its own performance class. IE. 77xx,78xx,79xx. also in a crossfire situation the faster card will run slower to match the other card. I recommend matching the cards exactly to prevent BSODS and any other weird instances.

Mine runs a Radeon 7970 6gb and this card on a 650w gold certified psu without issue. Can't speak to running it solo, though.

You need a bigger power supply that can handle your motherboard and graphics cards and everything else as well as PCI slots some graphics cards are 2.0 so require 3.0 PCI so you can but need a motherboard that can this one only has one 3.0 PCI slot so you won't be able to use modern graphics cards in crossfire on it.

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!

With the newer generations of cards CROSSFIRE is now supported through the PCIe connector on the motherboard, and yes this allows crossfire to be used.
