You can assume something like that.
First HD 2900 XT in crossfire can benefict a lot from PCI-E 2.0
Second the K10 CPU ofers lot of bandwith that is very need in crossfire rigs.

Remember that you are testing not only K10 but also RD790 and also HD 2900 that have support for PCI-E 2.0, and that till now were only working in PCI-E 1.0

I totally agree with DilTech.
Unlikely, but not impossible....
