quick question..

[EdGey]

ok, different programs/people are giving me different answers to this.

does the P5K-E motherboard have 2 x 16 speed slots capable of crossfire?

i think the answers no...but just to make sure...

nope 1 * 16 and 1 * 4

 

[EdGey]

ok then *gutted*

would it be a complete and utter waste of money to attmept crossfire for gaming anyway? how much would the slow down be compared to 2 * 16.

thank you

Yes. Crossfire is a complete and utter waste of money even on a 'board with 2 x 16 electrical slots.

platinum87, they advertise it that way becasue the slots are shaped like 16x, meaning a long 16x card will fit. It's just wired as 4x and can't go any faster than that.
