Hey guys. Just to let you know I have two ATI X1900Xt video cards. One is crossfire mastercard.

One X1900 will run CSS 1680x1050 at 150 fps avg in video stress test. WIth everything high 1680x1050 with HDR enabled the only time you will get under 70fps is on mill (50fps minimum).

Anyways I am selling them for around $140 and $120 as they are still powerfull cards in regards to todays selection. Especially with 512mb video ram.

BTW on 1 X1900 I run Crysis at all medium settings at about 28fps, which is very playable in singleplayer.

Haha, alright then. Crossfire can only be done with PCI-Express. It's linking of 2 cards together to make them act as one uber card. SLI is the NVIDIA version of the card linking. Again, it can only be done with PCI-Express.

Learned something new! :D

Only problem is that it has about a 10-15% efficiency, so its not so much like having a card on crack as much as a card on nutritionist approved supplements.
PROTIP: If you're getting one (not a bad deal) Get only 1, or put them in separate machines.

The crossfire master card is onlt 3 months old. The standard one is 18 months old. Of video cards do no really wear out. I performed regular maintenance by cleaning out heatsink and fan, and applying new thermal paste (arctic silver 5)
