Re: ATI 48xx sreies crossfire

So if i were to buy a nVidia chipset motherboard like the Asus P5N-T Deluxe could i put on ATI 4870. I know it wont do crossfire but will it run just one ATI card. And aslo what is better 8GB DDR2 800MHz RAM or 4GB DDR3 1333MHz RAM. Thanks.

Re: ATI 48xx sreies crossfire

OK. So what about the motherboards. I know that the intel chipset supports ATI videeo cards and nVidia cards (not SLI). How about the nVidia chipset - does it support one ATI graphic card?

Re: ATI 48xx sreies crossfire

Thanks DMB2000uk for clearing that out (sorry for those noob questions). So back to the topic. What is the main difference between crossfire and crossfireX. How would a system with a 4870 and 4870X2 perform (or would it be better to have just two 4870's). I heard that if theese two cards are in cros...

Which would run better. I read somewhere that because the 4870 has 512MB GDDR5 so the X2 uses also 512 mb GDDR5 giving the ...
