Does this support AMD / Crossfire?

It seems to be specifically tailored towards SLI from what I can see and struggling to find consensus.

Thanks

Yup no problem.

Great, thank you, does it scale just as well as Nvidia cards do? I would be running 2 HIS 7950's.

Thanks

I would go and have a look over at the EVGA forums before buying as there X79 boards are far from perfect.

Fair enough, i'm sure I read a few posts from yourself complaining about the board over at the EVGA forums.

A mate of mine as one mated with a 3820 at 4.6 rock solid. Allthough mensioned the bios layout being a little dull. Other than that, he's happy with it for what it cost.

Was my fault for putting in old drivers,had a usb surge thing come up but new drivers sorted it for me.
A few people have have problems with the x79 on the EVGA board .

Mine didn't, thank yourself lucky as judging by the EVGA forums users who experience no issues are in the minority
