GPU & CPU Question

[sylarzero]

Hi, i have a couple of R9 280X's GPU's
will they work ok with intel i5-4670K or is it recommended to go AMD for the CPU for best performance.

Thanks

4670k will be grand

Hi,

When you say 'couple' do you mean your are running 2 x 280X's in Xfire?

The 4670k or 4690k is the best option.

AMD CPU's can but aren't great in Multi-GPU setups.

You should be fine with the 4670k, don't forget to overclock

CUZ IT HAZ 8 COREZ THO, MUZT B BETTA!

Intel has a stronger architecture currently, so it handles Xfire/SLI better.

Intel all the way. One thing I think AMD does better are the iGPU s no good for you.

Not on the FX series, those chips have NO (zero) iGPU, the APU's do, they are very good for HTPC's and the like.
