    will fury x and fury work togather in crossfire?

    I have a sappire fury now, and saw the xfx fury x on newegg is cheaper than the fury. I want to crossfire since getting my new mg279q monitor im having issues with FPS in doom at max specs. Thought this would give me the boost I need to get the FPS up more.
