I have just got my hands on a 2nd HD 7950, and was wondering how is the best way to go about adding it to my rig. I have had a Google and there are so many people with there own way of doing things, as in some say remove drivers and start from scratch, others say just install as normal, and configure in CCC. So I thought I would start here, how do you all recommend to go about it ?

Or in my case just enables Cf anyway
^ What tribz said, the card will install the drives automatically might have to restart afterwards. It's plug and play really though.
Right after a big pain in the arse it is in. I had to remove 1 run of hose in the loop, for the card to fit, and I had to remove the shroud, as my res and 1st card just touch, and with the shroud being slightly larger, there was no way it would go. If anything the cooling will be slightly better than the stock shroud on the MSI HD 7950, plus it will give more of an incentive to by my block sooner rather than later.
After the messing about it is all up and running, I went with the plug and play option and all is well. Time to have some fun.
