It's supposed to be compatible on the same series : HD38***,HD48***,so it is.

Nice kairi, a hybrid tri-fire attempt. I hope you are successful. A few questions: What drivers are you using? Have you tried other drivers? Are both cards showing up in windows? Did you install the x-fire ribbon before entering windows before installing the drivers? If everything seems to be installed correctly, are you not seeing the 3 gpu option in ccc? Oh did you test the 4870 alone to check to see its functioning properly by itself?

*Temporary update to my burned up cards status*
__________________Ok so here is the short story of how this came about. Tore apart computer drilled holes in the back to flip my radiator around and cut tubing shorter. Reassembled pc and video card does not work?? if i have the video card in the computer does not boot at all what so ever. if i take the card out the computer boots fine on onboard video. Test out the pci e slot with a radeon x600se works fine?? plug 4850x2 back into primary pcie slot then connect x600 se into second pcie slot and connect monitor into x600se. computer boots up check device manager and only 1 gpu is listed for the 4850x2 instead of 2 and x600se works fine. Went to go and flash the bios on the 4850x2 and realise that its only the secondary adapter of the 4850x2 showing up the primary adapter does not show in windows. ok hook up 2 monitors one to the x600 se and one to one of the dvi ports for the secondary adapter on the 4850x2 both displays work switch monitors and set the 4850x2 as primary in vista and disable x600se and disconnect monitor now i can run the 4850x2's secondary adapter in windows @ 1920x1080 playing l4d at 180-200 fps no AA or eye candy just high res. Im sorry if this seems like a "HUGE" run on sentence. But i was wondering what everyones take is on this here? any other ideas maybe to get my video card running again? when i used ati win flash to flash the 4850x2's bios only the secondary adapter is showing there as well i have no way to try and flash the primary bios. Im wondering seeing as this card just like the 4870x2 chips has a on board crossfire controller the plx chip i believe do you think that is causing the problems or do you guys think maybe the primary adapter is just burned out or for some reason its bios isnt posting with the rest of the card? any more ideas or sudjestions would be greatly appreciated.

got my 4850X2 in today....
killed it in the first 30 mins. ![]() I must be the biggest (insert curse word here) idiot, tried to install a couple of Zalman coolers, but when taking the stock ones off, one of the screws held tight to one of those fan stands... Upon trying to take it out, seems that I managed to scrape the pcb with my pliers, killing a connection or something. Seeing if I can somehow RMA it without anyone noticing it was my fault >_> *sigh* I hate using this old 8600GT.... Just want to be able to use my brand-spanking new 4850X2. I hate my luck.
