thats what I wanted some else to say that only 2 ATI cards will work as crossfire, he just keeps on saying 2 nvidia cards will work.
And that is another point the PSU he has got is 500watt its a solid psu but with all the other stuff like 2 drives RAID and external usb 2 just a lot too put a 500watt psu and add possable 2 graphic cards, which will be 2900 so 500w is not going to last long before something goes bang.
His MB is only crossfire dont support both, cant say that I have heard of that.
