Dual R7 260x

I already have one R7 260x graphics card.

I want to get a second one and run dual graphics cards. Will I need a crossfire bridge?

My PSU can handle it and I have enough cooling to run it just fine.

Yes, you will need a bridge. Crossfire bridge should be included in the package isn't it?

By the way, crossfire of R7 260x may not be a good idea. R7 260x is low mid-range with only 128bit memory bus width, crossfire won't be performing that well, compare to crossfired R9 series.

Getting single powerful graphic card would be better. for example, Radeon R9 series, GTX-770, GTX-970, etc., and at its best when Crossfired/SLI..

Thank you for your answer. Unfortunately I dont think mine came with a bridge, if it did I have no idea where it could be.

I did a bit of research and although it looks like the general consensus is to upgrade to R9 instead of using Crossfire, I did find out that a 260x Crossfire can actually outperform an R9 270x by a bit. Since I already have one 260x, it is also cheaper for me to buy a second than to upgrade to a 270x. It looks like adding a second 260x will increase GPU performance by about 55%.
