effortless. As you probably noticed on one or two game titles, I've tested don't have multi-gpu support so There is no gain from running one
gpu or three. All-in-all, a great experience and I'm still amaze how good CrossfireX works; allowing ATI owners so many CF possibilities.
Hope you all enjoyed my review.
Great review, sure beats those other half-assed review sites.

You people are so gullible and stupid, believing a no-name market "analyst" over top of investor reports that are legal documents.

I have a question....

I am going to be selling my 2- 4870x2's locally what is a fair price to ask for 2 cards that have been in a good home for 8 1/2 months? I was thinking $350 canadian each.. is that too low or too high? input on this would be greatly appreciated.
