    Enabling/disabling crossfire jumbles my desktop

    I think when you enable crossfire or SLI you lose all video and until the cards/drivers are reinitailized windows switches to a default low resolution how it does when you have no drivers installed. If you look at how the icon are placed it is a 640x480 pixel area when your desktop returns. I...

    Enabling/disabling crossfire jumbles my desktop

    You can disable crossfire for individual games by making a game profile in CCC. Really easy to do and it will stop you from enabling/ disabling crossfire for certain games.

    Tri-Fire 7970, 7970, 7950

    How do you have the bridges connected? You need all 3 cards to have a bridge connected. You will need 2 crossfire cables. There is a few different ways to connect the cards. You can use the longer cable that comes with the mother board and go from card 1 to 3 then 2 to 1. Or 1 to 2 then to 3. I...

    Radeon HD 7970 CrossfrieX Issues

    A little update on my long ordeal. I recently broke one of my monitors...while moving it around... I almost rage smashed the entire rig but after some more testing and a night of cooling off I may be making some progress. ASUS is trying to replicate the issue I am having at their head...

    Radeon HD 7970 CrossfrieX Issues

    Yeah I don't know what to do. The response makes no sense at all. He is saying it is because the board is not running at 16x on all 3 slots. Running 2 cards in crossfire the slots are running 16x and the issue still persist. On the MSI Big Bang 2 spec sheet says it can do 16x,16,x,8x for the...

    Radeon HD 7970 CrossfrieX Issues

    Here is my actual response: Also this is the most uninformative response I have gotten in a long time.Never in your response did you state if you were able to replicate the issue. Did you even test this setup or did you just point me to some motherboard spec that I am well aware of.I am calling...

    Radeon HD 7970 CrossfrieX Issues

    Yeah complete bullshit. I sent back a response asking why it does the same thing running 2x crossfire with slots at 16x gen2 or gen3. Can't wait for the response on that lol.

    Radeon HD 7970 CrossfrieX Issues

    Some of us started building system before those cards where available. Also some have had good experiences with a certain brand of cards and a lot of folks seem to stick with what they are are used to. I had a awesome setup with my last rig that served me well for 4 years until I built this one...
