I am Trying to set up a Desktop PC for Home use.... I will do alot of music & graphics work on this set. I wish to use the FM2 A10 5800K with integrated HD7660D & hybrid crossfire with 7750 4GB or 2Gb dedicated card... Can this work?
Also can more that one card be used to maximize performance?
MB info:-
- ASRock FM2A85X Extreme4-M FM2 AMD A85X (Hudson D4) HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Micro ATX AMD Motherboard
or
- ASUS F2A85-M/CSM FM2 AMD A85X (Hudson D4) HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Micro ATX AMD Motherboard

It doesn't appear so. Based on AMD's web site, the best card you can Hybrid Crossfire with is the HD6670.

The second PCI-Ex16 slot on both of those motherboards only runs @ x4. I wouldn't try to Crossfire/SLI using a board like that. To my knowledge, you cannot set up a hybrid Tri-Crossfire set-up (APU + two Discrete).

If you want Hybrid Crossfire with that processor, you need a Radeon HD6670 discrete card.

If you want to set up Crossfire, you need a motherboard that has at least two PCI-Ex16 slots where both slots (with cards installed) run @ at least x8/x8 (not x16/x4).

romenega- You would be better off not using an APU and instead going with a Vishera FX 4, 6, or 8 core or an Intel 4 core. You will have better CPU performance. Also, Crossfiring inexpensive cards isn't the best idea, just get a more powerful single GPU like a 7850. But as the others have said, you can hybrid Crossfire with a 6670 if you want. Also - the 7750 4gb? Seems like a lot of video RAM for that narrow 128-bit memory system. Stay away from any 7750 cards that use DDR3 instead of DDR5 as they will not perform as well.

Thanx for the the advice guys. I really want to use the APU as it is less expensive for the application in question. However I will try the 6670 card with DDR5 2GB for Crossfire or just go independent with a 7750 DDR5 2 / 4GB for dedicated use.
