R9 280x Vapor-X & R9 280x Asus
hey,

I accidentally bought 2 Radeon R9 280x from eBay. I wanted to know if I could use both at the same time and have FCPX recognize/use them simultaneously. I'm asking because they're two different brands. One ASUS and one Sapphire.
Also I know that the Sapphire is plug and play but does anyone if the ASUS is as well or do I have to install drivers?

Please let me know asap.


Build:

Motherboard: Asus ATX 1150 Z97
CPU: i7-4790K

CPU Cooler: Corsair Hydro Series High Performance Liquid CPU Cooler H60

PSU: Corsair 650W

SSD: Samsung 850 EVO 500GB

Memory: Corsair Vengeance Pro 16gb DDR3

GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 (probably won't use)

GPU: Sapphire Radeon Vapor-X R9 280x 3GB

GPU: ASUS Radeon R9 280x - DC2T - 3GD5

Wifi: TP-Link Wireless Dual Band PCI Express Adapter

Case: Rosewill TYRFING ATX Mid Tower


I haven't put together everything yet, I'm still waiting for parts to be shipped.
 
Yes, you can.
 
Yes, you can.
Thank you. That is very exciting. Do you happen to know if my ASUS 280x needs a driver or can I just plug n go? This is my first build so I'm not too familiar with everything.


Last question I have a for now, do you know if psu 650w is enough to run dual monitors (they're not 4k) and everything?
 
I bought a 1000w psu to be safe
