Talking [NewEgg] Cheapest 3-Way CrossFire AM3 Board @ 89.99$

ZOMG! This one was amazing.

ASRock M3A780GXH/128M AM3 AMD 780G HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard

90$
3-way CFX (4x for 3-way, 8x for 2-way and 16x for single GPU)
DDR3 1600 support
SB710 (with ACC for overclocking)
128mb onboard memory
780G

This thing can handle 3 GPUs + 1 IGP = 4 GPUs = 8 Screens.
Dunno why but that sounds ridiculously cool

I think this deal is slightly old but a google custom search on overclock.net with M3A780GXH was negative. So I just posted it.

And for those who want 790GX/SB750 with same features (no point really, considering the fact that ACC, the only REAL reason to get SB750 is present in SB710 too and HD3300 isn't giving you THAT much of a boost anyway)........

You have http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813157152

which costs 15$ more for a better IGP.


I bet Intel won't be able to match this offering anytime soon.

Well you try and run 3x 4890 on that board..
Then you for sure know what bottleneck means.
Srsly! Who would run a GPU on a x4 lane? 1 will be bottlenecking, 2 would be insanely bottlenecked, 3 would be PITA.

If you want tri-fire go 790FX or Intel x58...

Absolutely. 8x8x4 CF has epic fail written all over it. Maybe it could make some good use out of 3 3870s..

Obviously its crap for 3-way.

But that doesn't stop it from being the cheapest multi-GPU solution for AM3. I'm sure 2x HD4770 won't have any issues running on 8x.

Not everyone uses 3 high powered GPU"S..

It would be great for multimonitors.

I think 3 way crossfire is a total waste of mega cash. Its fail over 9000. Anyway i got the board from ewiz and its pretty solid. It unlocks my 720 no problem. Any way its got dvi/hdmi/and vga all on board. It doesnt matter cause i use my 260 but it was nice. buts for real its not a bad board. It really is better than i thought at first

Well Think about it If some one has enough moneys for 3 4890's I really dont think there gunna skimp on the MOBO, I mean come on REALLY?

Probably aimed for people with 3 3870's or 4770's
or might make for a good folding board though
