hmm just worried with the thermal issues with the stock fans, but you never know maybe AMD has a real kick A#S GPU.

It is still good to get 2pcs RX480 to crossfire.
The price around RM1,299x2 = RM2,598 can beat a single GTX1070 RM1,999 (Palit GTX1070 Jetstream)
However, the power consumption is 437watt for RX480 crossfire and 236watt for GTX1070
You need to buy at least 700watt PSU to support the two cards.

cross fire you will get severe temp issue since the gpus are sandwich close together.
More power = more heat. unless you going to spend a bomb on water cooling its just not practical.
Maybe in the future there will be better 3rd party vendor cards with better cooling. thx
