ATI Launches Crossfire... Finally

Posted by Hemos on from the launching-to-catch-up dept.

Steve from Hexus writes "After a long wait, ATI's multi-GPU solution - CrossFire - is finally here. Hexus checks out Crossfire using an X850 Crossfire setup, which can be beaten in performance by a single GeForce 7800 GTX in some games. Too little too late, or will R520 based Crossfire prove more fruitful? Hexus also examines how Crossfire works, how easy it is to setup and what its limitations are with current hardware." Looks very interesting - I'd love to get one for review.

    but where are the Linux drivers? Doesn't matter how awesome the card is if we have to wait two years for drivers.

    Why would a Linux user need a 3D graphics card? This kind of card is for people that play video games on Windows.
