Crashes with 7970 in Crossfire + Eyefinity

[Final8y]

Thanks for this info! When I bought my 7970 cards I didn't want to change my computer, so I installed them on my 3 years old X58 system, and the crashes started. I reformatted, reinstalled... tried everything until I gave up and sold the motherboard, CPU and memory, then bought the X79... and didn't change anything.

After all the reports I have collected on different forums, to me it's more and more clear. The crashes only happen with 79xx cards in X58 and X79 systems. My Z77 computer remains rock solid (in PCIE 3.0 by the way).

Got new info from AMD that I'm allowed to share. AMD has identified a potential compatibility issue with a specific manufacturer’s hardware and is working closely with them to resolve the issue. The issue is receiving the highest attention at AMD and they hope to have a solution very shortly. AMD wants to thank all the users that have reported this problem, their feedback has been really valuable for them.
