Multi-GPU Compatibility on Motherboard

IModIntel · June 13th, 2007, 03:46 PM

Hey everyone,

Looking up a motherboard made by Tyan. 2 Xeons etc...cet...

I noticed that there was two PCI-E slots for video cards, and trying to find out if this motherboard is compatiblw with Mulit-GPU solutions (i don't care if its Crossfire or SLI, both are good to me). I cannot find any information regarding this compatibility on Tyan's site.

Thanks for any help.

P.S.: Chipset is Intel's 5000X.

Well normaly an server motherboard are not for do gaming but if the motherboard didn't had any certification for the support of sli or crossfire you can waste your money and try but it's can pass or it's can fail

Well the most of the servers motherboards didn't support Sli or Crossfire

I don't care if they are not good for gaming, i have my own plans for it. Anyways i'll maybe try Crossfire on it, if it doesn't work you can always return the card before 7 days and get a refund.

PCI-E x1 Graphics Performance with Galaxy GeForce 7300GT :: TweakTown

maybe worth a read

but it comes down too the pcie x1 slot is alot slower ,
good for a dvb-t card ,not so great in gaming ,still the 4 monitor thingy would be awsome with flight sims
