I designed a sub-$300 USD computer build that can run CrossFire perfectly.

I haven't tested this but based on my research of this hitting 30 FPS in AAA titles like Apex Legends on Low, it will DEFINITELY run CrossFire at 1080p Max with 60+ FPS. I wouldn't be surprised if you could use this with a 144Hz monitor.

Enjoy. It's pretty easy to put together.

Specs:
-400w PSU
-2 case fans, generic mATX case
-WiFi (single and dual band, it's a bad adapter but it will work)
-480GB SSD
-2 core 4 thread CPU running @ 3.2GHz (can be overclocked using the included B450 motherboard, unlike the A320 series).
-Vega 3 iGPU
-8GB DDR4 2666MHz RAM

This can technically run almost any modern game (such as PUBG, Apex, etc) at 30 FPS in 1080p, and most games at 45-60 FPS in 720p.... but I designed it for crossfire so whatever.

Edit: to all of you guys who clearly did not bother to read my post, I know a lot about hardware. 30-60 FPS for a $300 PC is good for AAA titles, and this means that you WILL GUARANTEED hit 60+ in CF, most likely 100+. And crossfires FPS rate is capped so OF COURSE more powerful hardware doesn’t help after a certain point, this doesn’t make it a CPU based game as I still only get 200 FPS with an i7-8700 and RTX 2070, w/ 1TB SSD and 16GB of RAM (though I cap it to 140 to prevent tearing).

To the people trying to insult AMD hardware, you most likely had the cards right after launch. It’s a known fact that AMD, a budget company, released crappy drivers then fixes them later on. The 200ge has been out for a long time at this point, the drivers are fine... it’s not an issue here.

Overall, stop commenting on my thread with misleading information preventing people from getting a better computer because you have no idea what you’re talking about, made assumptions, and want to seem smart.

30 fps.... sounds like fun

Please read what I said... that is in AAA titles such as Apex Legends.

In CrossFire I guarantee you this can hit 1080p max settings 60+ fps. Probably close to 100.

30-60 fps is good? o_O

am I the only one who have stable 250 fps?

If it has 30 fps in AAA games at 1080p, you will have 1 - 2 fps in CF with everything at low.;) Crossfire has such compatibility issues, that it actually will work worse, the newer and better stuff you run it with it seems.
Joke aside you probably won't have a stable fps unless you have at least a 256-bit graphic card. It seem to work fine with some 192-bit, but lets say 256-bit to be sure.

One of the few. I had at least 120 stable fps, but since i upgraded to windows 10 the fps jumps up and down all the time.

I had bad experience with AMD GPU when playing CF. I had an 8 GB RX 480 and had massive fps drops and on certain maps I had las than 80-90 fps. I changed to an Nvidia 1660Ti and it is smooth. To be noted though that I also tested on the same HW with a 1080Ti and had the same amount of fps as on the 1660Ti, around 220~.

The conclusion is that, for sure, CF is poorly optimised and will not take advantage of faster HW.

I belive CF it's CPU base game. Tested with 2 GPUs: an AMD 580(8GB VRAM) and other Nvidia 1050Ti(4GB VRAM) all with the latest drivers. I get the same ammount of fps in game.

You must play Fps 250 fixed frame
