Default Re: Whats the best desktop CPU for around $200

To anyone that doubts Crossfire, I have had SLI and now crossfire. Keeps up easily to SLI and not nearly as buggy as most people say/think. Probably a case of the good ole "User Error". If you get/got a Crossfire board, the RD580 boards are much better than the RD480 boards. BUT, Crossfire must have a ridiculously strong PSU. Even my PSU is said to have issues with it, but not for me yet. SLI isn't quite as bad, but still getting a super strong recommended unit for either is an absolute must!
