Replacement of GTX560ti with crossfired 7770 and 7750

I have Gainward GeForce® GTX 560 Ti 1024MB "Golden Sample". Does it make sense to change for crossfired 7770 and 7750 each 1Gb in order to get more fps in Battlefield 4 FullHD resolution?

Now I have average 80 at medium and 50 at high.

Other games are Arma 3 and Rome 2 Total War.

No. As a general rule, the 560 is pretty far ahead of the 7770. (Not in everything, but on average.)

Given the usual scaling penalties and so on with multi-GPU setups, a pair of 7750s would be a sidegrade at best, and a pair of 7770s would be schizo - either a lot faster or a lot slower, depending.

It's also been a while since 1GB of VRAM was considered adequate. That will handicap you at high res.

A 280X will walk all over either setup and cost around $200 with 3GB of RAM. You didn't mention a budget but if the cost is doable I'd probably do that. (Or wait a couple months and see how the GTX 960 stacks up when it comes out after the holidays.)

You may see more frames per second from 7770+7750 but not a huge amount.

Check if what you can sell for more - 560Ti or 7770+7750.
I think you could get more for the crossfire setup. Then sell it and get used R9 280 for $100-120 and be done with it.

Also your CPU will be the weakest point then.

It will be a sidegrade at best, with compatibility and latency issues at worst. Better off with the 560ti for now.

definitely no. go for a single GPU like R9 280 if you want a good upgrade.:thumbsup:
