    yeah, but I can set a 3:4 divider if async mode is turned of, right?

    There are no need for dividers. That's the best thing about the RD600 i reckon.

    no need for dividers? that sounds awesome, cant wait to see some first results with the board

    but some things on the dfi product page doesnt sound so great to me

    • Expansion Slots
      # 3 PCI Express x16 slots for ATI CrossFire and ATI Physics 2+1 Configuration (2 Graphics + 1 Physics)
      - 2 ATI CrossFire graphics cards (each operates at x8 bandwidth).
      - 1 ATI Physics graphics card operates at x2 bandwidth.


    but overall the boards could be better then intels 975x chipsets, we will see...

    3DMark05 Score: 4028

    What's wrong with supporting Ati's physics? Better that then nVidia's.

    I don't care about the 1*16X or 2*8X. I just hope that the Raid is PCi-E connected...

    If not then the chipset is quite cheap on Pci-E lanes...
