wtf8269 Posted November 25, 2005 Posted November 25, 2005 Are you sure they're supposed to be able to run without a mastercard? I haven't done much reading up on Crossfire itself, but I thought you had to have a mastercard no matter what. Maybe I'm just dumb. Sorry if that's the case lol.

stryg Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 Any luck with the 5.13s? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kabong Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 Any luck with the 5.13s? I have tested a X1600XT Crossfire rig with 2x Powercolor X1600Xt in an Asus A8R-MVP and a DFI RDX200. No problems, but only works with 5.13s (Beta). Regards, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikspk Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 This all sounds very suspect. Crossfire mode is when both cards are processing part of the on-screen image. The master card (from the detailed pics I've seen) has a different connector which allows the secondary card to feed it's output into the input of the master card. I figure the master card has the ability to mix the two together properly and send them out. I could be smoking something but not at this second. Now, I guess you could install two PCI-E cards in the machine at the same time and have them both work but the crossfire really wouldn't be working. Am I incorrect?
