Wondering what is rough equivalent to an EVGA GTX760 Superclocked in the recent AMD lineup? Reason being I would like to take advantage of the APU + discrete GPU teaming function with my 7850K. Figured I could throw it up in the trade section if it seems like a good idea.

I'd like to say it's somewhere between an HD7870 and HD7950. Or, between a R9 270 and 280, or 370 and 380. Same thing, basically.

I don't think a 7850Kcan Crossfire with cards in this performance bracket though. Maybe there's something else you can do now; I haven't been keeping up. I think you need to use something like an HD7750 or R250 to make use of the 7850K's iGPU, because a 7950 is something like 5-6x faster and would end up slower if you tried to use both.

This is correct, though I think it's the R7 250 and 250X specifically.

EDIT: It's the R7 250 and 240 only.

Oh ok, I guess I'd be best off just throwing the 760 in it in that case. I thought it would just boost any AMD Rx series card.

They might in DX12 games in a few years but for now it only works on a few cards
