Can my motherboard support crossfire or SLI?

heggenator · Jan 15, 2018

The motherboard I already have, the AMD 8 7650K, has an integrated graphics card and I was wondering if it would support a dedicated GPU.
I’ve also heard of crossfire and SLI, and would I need them? And would my CPU handle it?
Thanks!

You need to list the model of the motherboard, not the CPU. As for getting a second card I would say pass as the driver support is pretty poor nowadays. You could pair that CPU with the GTX 1050 ti or something similar and have better performance in your games.

So get the GTX 1050 ti?
And what’s the difference between a CPU and motherboard?

First off, the AMD 8-7650K is a CPU(actually an APU), not a motherboard. An APU has the GPU integrated into it. We can't answer your question without knowing what motherboard you have.

Yes it would be a good card to pair with that CPU.

Is the processor the motherboard?

The CPU (processor) is attached to the motherboard and is essentially the brain of the system. The motherboard connects everything together.

Ok then I’ve no idea, but can I slot another GPU in anyways?

As long as your system has a PCIE X16/X8 slot then yes you can use a dedicated graphics card.
