I have an "AMD A8-6500 APU with AMD Radeon HD 8570D". On my motherboard it self it says i have the CrossfireX ready pci express x16 bus. After a while researching i discover i could get an amd Radeon HD 6670 and have it work out with the whole thing. On the AMD website they said it has crossfirex support, on the newegg store (same one but made by asus not amd, refurbished) that it did not have the crossfirex support. My question is will it still work? dispite what newegg tells me? also the newegg (as i just said) said no crossfirex support, does this mean the "bridge" connector? i also read that it could work with the intergrated gpu. In theory it should work...

You are getting the term CrossfireX mixed up with the term Dual Graphics. Almost the same thing, but not quite. Yes, that card will work with in dual graphics mode with your APU.

Dual Graphics Mode is the ability to use a discrete card of the same GPU class with the on-die GPU of your APU. CFX is the ability to use 2 identical GPU equipped gfx cards in adjacent PCIe x16 slots and have them function as one dual-GPU equipped gfx card.
