  Old  Dual GPUs

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showpr...d=5&subcat=565

"Features Dual PCI-E graphics interface (ATI CrossFire supported)"

Does that mean only xfire? or will nVidia cards work in SLI mode too?

Vizon is an unknown quantity at this point

ATI doesn't work SLI. SLI is Intel and Nvidia.

Vizon, that's not what I asked. I know that already.

This mobo says it supports dual-gpus, but it says nothing about SLI, only crossfire.

As far as I see Vizon's reply was valid.
You asked if nVidia cards will work in SLI mode.

But if I understand correctly you're asking if that mobo can use SLI?
I'd say not, only crossfire with ATI cards.

It can use both; dual GPU means that there is 2 PCIx16 slots, so you can place 2 GPU's; though I suggest you do your research on SLI & CrossFire though... + SLI is useless unless you want the best of the best of the best... And even then...

Their motherboards require different north bridges, they cant be both. A crossfire board can only do crossfire and SLI can only do SLI

Okay... I worded my question wrong, sorry, no need to tell me off. I merely said that isn't what I was asking.

But thanks for the informative reply, Village Idiot.
