Would it be possible to crossfire this and my 3870x2? Might be a good buy to gain like 4k points in 3DMark06!

not for crossfirex tho :cool:
dunno if the maximus supports crossfirex, i read somewhere that its just a driver but i dont have a clue...

also nice find! if i could get a 2600xt for £13 in the uk i would get it just for the hell of it lol!

crossfireX only works for HD3000 series cards

and yes this is a great deal, I got one a few weeks ago but be advised the picture is not what you get, you actually get a cheaper looking one with a cheap cooler and girl on it
I plan to get another for crossfire for the heck of it :)
