Thor. Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 (edited) Yes i am going crossfire with my gigabyte 7950, after my bro decided to out do me, i figured its time for a upgrade. In the future i might go 3 way crossfire but my case only supports only two cards. :geek: :( Buying it online at Tigerdirect tomorrow latest :thumbsup: http://www.tigerdire...7008&CatId=7387 Edited July 25, 2012 by Thor.

hoofhearted4 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 (edited) well considering some games dont really get much of a boost with CFX, and in fact, many dont support and even have trouble when run on a system with CFX, this might not be the best of ideas. just throwing that out there. i dont expect you to reconsider since your a stubborn old (young) coot, but haha yea. just lettin you know. also if you go soo much money you should lend some to me so i can FINALLY build my PC! ;) lol Edited July 25, 2012 by hoofhearted4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor. Posted July 25, 2012 Author Share Posted July 25, 2012 Coming from experience yes you do get a performance gain from sli or crossfire, its just a matter of opinion and experience.. I would go crossfire or sli any day, it is worth it. trust me, especially in Crysis or any heavy gpu driven games.:teehee: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uberness23 Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 I get great Scaling with Crossfire in Skyrim. Full utilization across both Chips on Radeon 6990. Tri-Fire is another issue though. The third card, no matter the config goes entirely unused, no matter the profiles used. This is because AMD disables 3 card support in their App profiles for Skyrim. As for general performance, it varies. It usually takes AMD/Nvidia some time to get good working drivers out for new games, and often longer for multi-gpu setups. That being said I love my 6990.
