Giving it a try !!!

heya ,

I have a MB which has two pci-e slots, although one runs at 16x and the other at 4x.

is thete any way to enable crossfire in this MB ???

it is gigabyte GA-8i945p Dual Graphic

gigabyte offers CF in 965 platform which also has the 16x / 4x config... ??
some others in 915 , 945 also.

my q is is there any possibility to get CF working on this MB ?

i dont have another vga card to try , if it can do ,i would buy another card.

thanks

 

yes should be cus crossfire dont need 2 16x pci lanes and mine is running fine at 16 and 4 x

 

Don't give people advice if you don't know what you're talking about, hopefully the OP didn't go out and buy another ATi card for a Crossfire setup he cant support.

His motherboard does not support Crossfire.

 

... you do know 965 supports cf right it was added like 5 months ago

 

he has 945

 

Whats then ?

 

nah man no crossfire, use the second slot for a tv card

 

i havent seen full length pci-e tv cards yet !

 

YES ati all in wonder 2007

 

People would get better advice from doing a Google search, than from risking getting knowledgable advice in this ATi section.

.....and that's a shame.

 

Mm .. i feel ur right
