4870 and 4890 compatability

[angeknight]

The company fxf replaced a faulty 4870 i was using in crossfire with a 4890. Is the 4890 compatible with the other 4870 card? is there a table or some source i can look at to find out? from what i have found so far it looks like yes they are compatible in crossfire however, i would like a second opinion.


Thank you very much.

If you have temperature issues, downclock the 4890 or sync your clocks with 4870 speeds in windows with msi afterburner or whatever software you use.

They will, you can crossfire any 2 cards in the same family.
You should be happy actually, they just gave you a free upgrade.
