SLI / Crossfire Questions! 2 GPUs!

[whosBlu]

Well im planning on buying the MSI Radeon HD 7870 GHz Edition, but on the page it says it dosen't support SLI, but i supports Crossfire. Does this mean if in the future i decide to but another 7870, could i use both with crossfire? I though SLI and Crossfire were the same?

Please help!

Crossfire is just AMD's version of NVidia's SLI.


as long as your motherboard supports at least 8x/8x, you'll be fine. if your second slot is a 4x, don't bother
