I have a major question.
I have bought an HIS 2600 XT 512MB Core clock: 830MHz Memory Clock: 1920MHz *GDDR 3* MEMORY {http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814161174}
...however...I am wanting to buy the
MSI 2600XT Radeon HD 2600XT 512MB 128-bit GDDR4 Core clock: 850MHz Memory Clock: 2300MHz for a crossfire set up! {http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127303}
Now there is a big problem here because of the clock differences...The good ol' catalyst will cut the power of the better card to "make it compatible" with the lower card, thus CROSSFIRE...however....I don't want this. I want to flash the bios of the HIS card to match the MSI cards specs, etc so the computer thinks that there are two of the same**BETTER, FASTER** cards...THUS no power/performance cuts to the better card...Is it possible ***(AND SAFE)*** to flash the HIS card to the specs/power of the "better" MSI card?
THANKS EVERYONE!
Drew
