Hi guys, I'm newbie in pc building. I want to install my new r9 270x gpu and crossfire it to my APU. I've watched youtube videos but I got a bit confused. So can someone help me and give me a step by step instructions? This is my computer specs.

Processor : A8-7600
Mobo : Gigabyte GA-F2A68HM-S1
With 2 8GB Kingston Hyperx Fury memory and 600watts true rated psu.

Your help will be very much appreciated.
 
The R7 240 and R7 250 are Dual Graphics capable with an A8-7600. The 250x and 270x are not supported in Dual Graphics mode.

Dual Graphics combines a weak graphics card with weak processor graphics for a not-so-weak graphics solution. Use of a single R9 270x would be a better solution.

So it is better to use only the R9 270x gpu. How about in installing my R9 gpu? Do I need to uninstall first my current radeon software/drivers before installing my new R9 drivers?
 


You don't need to uninstall the drivers, plug in the card, it should be detected. Make sure you move the monitor connection to the new card.
