Hi,
Right now I have a Sapphire Radeon HD 7870 GHz Edition with an AMD FX-6300. Would I be bottlenecking my GPUs if added another Radeon 7870. So that would be 2 7870s. Right now my CPU is overclocked to 4.2 GHz, and at stock it is 3.5 GHz. If I crossfired 2 7870s would I be bottlenecking them?
I will try to provide as much detail as possible:
