Yeh, you'll be able to do that. Every video card I've had I've been able to do that. If you want to be doubly sure I think there is an msi 290/290x owners club here on Techpowerup too where you could ask about that issue. Although it looks like a BIOS update solved the problem for the guy on that guru3d thread. And someone else looks like they said just updating msi AB and drivers solved it.

I have sold my card, so fare so good, i was thinking about evga, buy one now and get one gtx 800 later with there step up program(90 days later), i have heard a gtx 760 has some loud fans i remember, gtx 770 i guess would be okay to buy the 2gb version (2560x1080 monitor), gtx 780 is to expensive, then a gtx 870 or 880.


BUT i don't know prices on gtx 800 and i don't like reference cards, i can't be shure to can get a evga gtx 800 with there own cooler in max 90 days from the purchase of a gtx 700.

Just my opinion, if you don't want to wait for new cards why don't you just get the best single GPU atm, gtx 780ti (with the exception of the junk titans), make sure your upgrade is worthwhile.
