it may be ill conceived but i want to run a rx 460 4gb nitro edition in crossfire. i have my reasons so lets skip the "just get a diffrent card" thing. i already have one card unlocked in a custom loop and it maxes out everything i through at it (except crises 3...) and i want to add another to the loop i bought this one for about $110 and am totaly fine with getting another but heres the question can i run them in crossfire and how, because the nitro edition has no crossfire bridge and if i researched correctly none of them do...
running an msi 1150 mobo with 2 graphics slots..

It is possible. And no, you don't need a bridge, this was phased out by AMD years ago.

Connect the second card and make absolutely sure that your PSU is up to the task and that it provides enough power and power connectors. Otherwise, you will need a PSU upgrade as well.

Crossfire is configured through AMD drivers, nothing else needs to be done.
