FPS on games

[noothers]

So my buddy is building me a computer and the specs that I know of so far are
Nzxt h440 case
Amd fx 8320
2x AMD R9 290x
Sabertooth990fx motherboard
32 gigs RAM
Evga supernova 1300 watt psu
And a bunch of watercooling and fans he's installing I was curious as to what kinds of fps I could get on the most demanding kind of games.

Thanks!!!

2 x r9 290x works nearly as well as r9 295x2 - http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/radeon-r9-295x2-review-benchmark-performance,3799-7.html

You might not need that big PSU - http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/amd-r9-295x2-1000w-psu,3907.html

Getting R9 290x's doesn't make sense after the GTX970 launch. Get 2 of those instead.

And the 32GB ram. What's your budget?

Its a friends build Whats HIS budget?

He's building me the computer yeah but he already has an r9 290x he was gonna buy one and throw another one in there to do crossfire

Why 32gb RAM? Pointless. get 8gb instead. Start with a single 290x. I doubt you will want two as one will max all game at 1080p.

Tell us a budget and we'll come up with alternatives

Like 1800ish I think he wants to put on a GTX 980 instead of the 2 R9 290x's
