Got it to work but not in the way it is intended. You are supposed to be using the blue (x16) pci-e lanes for video cards on this board. I got the black lanes to work for the 2nd card. So I have one in the top blue lane and one in the black lane which is running at 8x. Strange problem this.
Yes, currently running bios 905.
Also these cards worked in crossfire in the distant past. I just broke the fan blade on one of them and waited like a year to fix it.
The video cards are 6970s, one is a reference board and the other is a MSI Lightning 6970.
The 2nd card, no matter which...
Test both video cards independently and they work and loaded setup defaults in Bios.
One thing is that I can only get video to work with 1 card if it's in the first PCI-E area, i could not get video in any of the other PCI-E slots..... also I have a sound card that works in the other slots...

The only difference I can see between these two models is Power Design. The V being 12 phase, and the Pro being 16 phase. My question is: If I'm doing a mild 24/7...
I spent about 10 minutes reading reviews and watching videos and I'm going to take a pass on this. It is a piece of trash even for $69.99. Head over to Amazon and read some reviews, or go to youtube and watch some, you'll save yourself some time/money.
Also, kindle fire is coming out next month.
Ask them if they'll honor yesterday's price. I called today and I was told that they were $107.99. After explaining that I had come in yesterday and purchased one for $47.99, he was willing to honor that price.
I'm on my way to get another now.
I visited MC last night for the first time in many years. I picked up the i5-2500k for $149.99, and got an Asus z68 V-Pro mobo for $160. They were also willing to undercut newegg's price on RAM and the Corsair H80 (and pretty much anything else) by 5%.
Good deals. Thx for the info.
