Sli or crossfire

[shameel]

is my msi h61m-e23 sli or crossfire ready?
if not wil it effect performance by me installing a msi amd r6870?

no, there is only 1 pci-e 16x 2.0 slot. H61 boards are designed to be on budget and will only contain a minimal amount of slots so that it can fit a budget build.

It will not affect performance, but it is not crossfire ready. For crossfire to work, you need to have two PCIe slots and two cards.
