| 714601 | 2008-10-25 03:29:00 | Ok, I have a question about a motherboard and gfx. Looking at getting this (www.computerlounge.co.nz) motherboard and I supports ATI Crossfire. woot - i don't care. But what I am wondering is, will it support a single gtx260 or gtx280? From my reading around I am getting mixed opinions of 'it will work' and 'it doesn't work' so was wondering if anyone here know for a fact if it will/won't work. Cheers. |

Single GPUs from either ATI or NV. However, only dual ATI cards can be used not NV SLI. |

| 714608 | 2008-10-25 05:01:00 | It will work. Simple as that. |

| 714609 | 2008-10-25 05:34:00 | supports ATI Crossfire. But will it support a single? Of course it will. Crossfire, SLI, whatever, you can put any graphics card in it, its only when you want two cards it becomes an issue. |

| 714610 | 2008-10-25 05:49:00 | yep thanks guys, like I said, I was pretty sure that this would work, but when you're shelling out the hard earned $$ it pays to be sure :o | Bozo (8540) | ||
