Am I right in assuming that you can't run Crossfire with a Thunderbolt monitor? From what I've read, you have to use Lucid Virtu so that you can switch to another GPU from the onboard one, and Virtu apparently doesn't support Crossfire, is this correct or is there another way around it to get Crossfire working apart from buying a different monitor? Thanks.
 
Does thunderbolt accept displayport signals (I'm pretty sure it uses DP as its video component). If it does, you could try running the DP port on the card to the thunderbolt port on the monitor.
 
It doesn't want to work like that, it looks like no kind of Thunderbolt / DP adapters exist either :/ I guess i'm stuck using 1 video card unless i get a new monitor for now.
