Would have been a better deal to just get a better card.

Would have been a better deal to just get a better card.[/QUOTE] I already have the 9600gt's I dont have any money left over to spend on a new graphics card, unless I can sell them both and get a 4870/5770/gtx 260 then I will have to stick with sli. Most likely gonna go with this one then: [url]http://www.ebuyer.com/product/161492[/url]

Crossfire/SLi are the same thing, it just depends whether ATi or nVidia pay more to advertise their technology.
But if its CF Only you can only crossfire. Same way if its SLI.
I'm using two 4870s in an "SLi" motherboard.
[QUOTE=adzicents;18106638]I'm using two 4870s in an "SLi" motherboard.[/QUOTE] By all means this should be impossible, if the hardware for Crossfire is not there, then you cannot have crossfire. You must have bought an SLI/Crossfire board, or your second HD4870 is not doing anything.
Some boards which advertise Xfire or SLi only, can be used for the other thing with a simple BIOS update.
