The processor can. But your motherboard might not support crossfire, could you give us the link to the motherboard?

that board has an x16 and an x4 slot. you *can* crossfire with the X4 slot, but you probably don't want to.

insead of 2 R7 270s, for the same price you could get a 285 or 380

thanks for the message. so if i am correctly and the second pcie 16x slot is x8, how much fps am i going to lose?

nothing much. the difference between 16x/16x and 8x/8x is 1 FPS. Its the difference between 100 FPS and 99 FPS
