    What game(s) can you come up with that 1) have no (decent) CF support, and 2) won't run fluently on "only" an HD4870 1GB?

    Also what about renaming the executable if you desperatly want to crossfire those games?

    Last I would think civ2, monkey island 1 & 2 and stuff like that are prehistoric. Games with an engine that is accelerated by D3D I would consider just old.

    But seriously though, I don't see the point in thinking a 2 year old game would suffer many problems trying to get it running crossfired.

    Hiya

    Not quite sure if this is the right place for my problem but i've been following this thread, and in general the 4870X2 news quite thoroughly, and focus seems to be in here in this thread.

    Well, I just recieved my 4870X2 by Club3d and now I can't get the card to "post" It doesn't show any screen what so ever.
    I can see five little LED's light up when the system starts and the fan is also running - but no screen.
    I tried to install my old 8800GTS 512 card and it had no problems it posted instantly.

    I've tried to connect hardmounted cables AND modular cables from my PSU but for no good.

    I'm desperate
