GRAPHICS CARD HELP.... AGAIN

[Brud]

Just wondering if an amd radeon hd 7990 will work with an amd fx 6350?

Also does anybody know the measurements for an amd radeon hd 7990?

yes, but he 6350 will be holding it back for most games

7990 is a dual gpu card, go with a single card

r9 280x is half of the card

or r9 290/x


cpu bottleneck is ok the system will always be held back by the cpu or gpu
simple test is to turn down aa/af, if fps does not inprove its a cpu bottleneck

why a single and not dual? i'm relatively new to the pc scene so i'm still learning the ropes.

dual gpu requires crossfire, not all games suport it to use both on the card
also uses more bandwidth and power for minimal gains vs a single stronger card

Would that be the right card? Just checking before I commit to any ideas xD

what power supply do you have? (brand/model)

290x is a great card

Atrix AX-500EXB ATX Power Supply Expert - 500W

Will I need a more powerful power supply?
