Hi.
Do you guys think it will be a good idea to buy another 280x Toxic to play in 2560x1440 or is it just a waste of time and money? I got a i5 2500K, do you think i can be cpu-limited for that resolution?
Ciao Phil ;D Benvenuto!
Since HT is still not supported in game and you have 2500K, I don't think you will have issues.
280X has a very good price in these days, if you are ok with PSU..why not?
You are @ 4.7GHz right?

Hi and welcome to ocaholic Phil!
I agree with Luca. Today's games, they don't support more than four cores. Additionally, when you're playing at 1440p, the VGA will be the limiting factor and not the CPU.
Thanks a lot guys
Now i need only one thing.. money.
Two italian shops have 280x Toxic at 290 euros + 10 euros of shipping, i think it's a good price.

280x Toxic
I have seen, is weird but you know..Toxic is rare here.
AlienPC is a good shop
Check also eprice, maybe wait for Christmas or friday when usually they ship for free (not always, but sometimes)
