Ok, so from a lot of help from you guys here, I decided to go with the directcu ii 7970 non top edition, and I was wondering how good crossfire would be. I know its a triple slot card, and i have 4 questions about that:
1. Will a standard crossfire bridge be able to fit across to the second card?
2. Are there any triple crossfire bridges?
3. How will the card spacing affect my cooling? They would have to be next to each other right?
4. The non top only has a 1ghz boost clock, and i would like to get at least 1200mhz out of it. With the cards being close together make the temps to high to achieve that?
How would i go about spacing them out more? They would only be a few centimeters away from each other because of the bridge right? What is the longest bridge i can get?
I was actually looking to do a similar thing in my AMD system - I am pretty sure the same applies to me with spacing but I'd like to confirm it with someone who knows a bit more than I do xD
I'm looking at the following boards, I also realise that the Formula-z is probably overkill.
