    ATI's X1600 and X1900xxx could CrossFire over PCI Ex. without the cable, that was before the they had bridges.
    Nope, I ran Crossfire back then and clearly remember having to have a master and slave card (they weren't the same) with an external pass-through cable connecting them outside of the PC.

    You are right.. You had the conector wired on the DVI of the master card ( one cable was go to the slave, and the second to the monitor ). ( i have got CFX with X1800PE 512 ( huum not sure for this one, i remember have buy the X1900 only 2 months then > X1900-1950XTX > 2900XT > 4870 > 5870 > 7970 ( and SLI too at same time from the 6600GT SLI ) ( I have even still nearly all gpu here. )

    The way they do CFX look to have been rewrite there. but i will not even be surprised you will see somthing similar from Nvidia about SLI in the next generation..
