Does ati crossfire onboard improve performance with nvidia graphics card added

Hi

Nope doesn't look like you can, you'd need a ATI/AMD discrete graphics card to "Crossfire" with the on-board GPU.

Here's a quote explaining AMD Hybrid corssfire technology

"ATI Hybrid Graphics is a technology umbrella brand encompassing several technologies, such as ATI Hybrid CrossFireX™, ATI SurroundView™, ATI PowerPlay™, etc. that allow both an AMD integrated graphics processor and a discrete graphics processor to work co-operatively on an AMD based system to provide enhanced gaming performance, productivity and platform efficiency to the mainstream PC."

Just use the GTX460

Wasn't sure I do know better not that much of neb but was reading other forums and ran into some stuff that led me in that direction. my mobo supports all that u quoted like hybrid crossfireX surround viw all that good stuff and ty 4 fast reply.
