    Well, I used my 3870 in both my 16x and 4x slot and I got this:

    So in a crossfire setup, wouldnt the second card also be crippled like this?

    Death to 4x PCI-E slots please

    There are a few X48's with two slots for around £150, but that is still a bit too much, and the X38's are terrible overclockers.

    If I had the cash I would go ahead and buy an X48, but I am still hoping we can get a sub £100 budget version like the 650i / 750i but for crossfire.
