6950 Crossfire

[Masterdeadly]

His 1GB 6950, and http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showpr...56&subcat=1752 Both of these are going in, But I have a dilemma one of my PCI express slots is X16 and the is X8 will this mean I'll have to settle with just one 6950?

It will work fine go for it, X8 just means it wont be 100% performance, heck itll probably be around 98% or so, insignificant loss.

Thank you for that I've had a 6950 running in this system before i've only just realised I have two PCI-E 2.0? That will matter?

1680 X 1050 and will the PCI 2.0 make any difference? http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CB-018-AK Will have to buy two of these as I only have 2 6 pin connectors at the moment .

PCIe 2.0 is what you want isn't it? As long as you have 2 of them. What mobo do you have?
