I have three Radeon 5770 cards (Gigabyte SOC, Sapphire and XFX) And i was wondering if it would be possible to do a 3-way Crossfire with all three cards.

I've been using the Gigabyte and the Sapphire in Crossfire for a few months, and acquired the xfx for free. The gigabyte SOC has one crossfire port but both of the others have dual ports. My question is, despite the lack of a 6th port, should I be able to run three way XFire with two 2-way Crossfire bridges?

Thanks and appreciation,

Neb

Yes, if your motherboard supports it, however, the Gigabyte one needs to go on the last slot since it has one crossfire port. Plug in the bridge to the second CrossfireX port for the first card then to the second card and plug the second card...

It does, This is something I have checked. And the reason I don't try right away is because I don't want to buy an extra bridge and a psu adapter if i dont need it.
