Hello,
Is there any existing or future solution that will support at least 3 native
pcie slots 3.0 @ 8x or 16x to have 3 r9 290 cards working together in crossfire mode ?
I currently have a 2500k on P67 motherboards, the cards runs at pcie 2.0 8x 8x 4x.
The current solutions uses an extra switch chip to bring the extra pcie 3.0 16x/8x support,
but the cpu's does not support it actually, this brings some latency.
The R9 290 uses the pcie slots to exchange data/sync (no external bridge).
I've seen that the future x99 supports multiples pcie nativealy on 2011-3 socket,
but only at 2.0 speed ?
And also, I do not want to spend money on an extreme cpu at 1000 euros/dollars,
just a regular i4 or 5 generation K unlocked.
Kind Regards,
xixou.
