    SLI/Crossfire are they interchangeable?

    I have a X1950Pro and want to buy another one and run them in crossfire mode. Can I uase this card in any SLI configured MoBd? or do I need a crossfire MoBd to run ATI products? I can't find this specific info anywhere.

    Short answer, no... SLI and CrossFire don't mix.

    Crossfire and SLI are built using different architectures. Unless someone can find some way to bridge these architectures using some kind of conversion formula, there will never be a motherboard that natively supports both of them.
    Core 2 Duo E6600 | eVGA 680i SLI | eVGA 8800 GTX | Soundblaster X-Fi Platinum | Corsair XMS2 2GB PC2-6400 800mhz @ 4-4-4-12 | Western Digital 500GB Caviar HDD | OCZ GameXStream 700-watt PSU | 24" Acer X241W LCD
