Does the Gigabyte GA-Z97X-SLI come with a crossfire bridge

Solution
As of last year I don't believe you need an external AMD bridge for the modern AMD models in a crossfire setup. As mentioned in an article last year "AMD built a DMA engine into its compositing block, facilitating direct communication between GPUs over PCI Express". "The big benefit is that there’s no longer any need for an external bridge."

You are right and wrong at the same time.
AMD R9 290 and 290x card do not require crossfire bridge,
but r9 270 and 280 do require, look here:

By the way, I have bought a couple of motherboards and non of them had crossfire bridge.
