Reformat for Crossfire?

[lowteckh]

Got my new mobo and CPU but my second 4850 doesn't come until after Labor Day and I'm not willing to wait overnight for UPS to deliver as I want to be out of town as much as possible (still on break, hate this city of Seattle). I'll obviously be needing to reformat/reinstall OS and whatnot but would I have to do it again once I stick the 2nd 4850 in it? Should restate it this way... would be it recommended to reinstall/reformat or can it do without?

No need to reformat.

no

all you need to do it shut down, install the card, add the bridge and the drivers even turn on crossfire for you

the only real issues ive seen with ati drivers the usually result in a format is going from nvidia to ati drivers, but most driver cleaners fix that if you do it right
