| 748243 | 2009-02-15 22:31:00 | Hi From your signature, I notice that you've HD 4870x2 in your computer box. Just for my interest, how do you connect the 2 cards to your monitor? Can you use either one of the 2 to connect it? :o |

| 748248 | 2009-02-15 23:12:00 | There's a difference between the 4870X2 and two 4870's :) The X2 as mentioned has a CrossFire bridge on it so the card acts as one unit. Two 4870's can be bridged as well. |
