| Pulled the specs on your board.... So you have 3 PCI-E 2.0 slots that run at x16 x16 x1 so that shouldnt be a problem... Have you tried running GPU-Z and seeing what speed the cards are running at? I took screenshots of how you can run the render test in GPU-Z if you're not familiar with it....Make ... |

GPU-z 0.5.8 shows PCI-E 3.0x16 @ x16 1.1
Thats because the mainboards Power Save features kick in and slow down PCI While Idle! Watch while running furmark or any other 3d Application.
even running from Furmark and Kombustor...it shows as PCI-e 1.1 |

Na, no offense taken.
I have the cable plugged into both cards and Crossfire is enabled.
I have NOT checked Afterburner, but will later tonight and let you guys know. Again, thanks for the help. I can usually figure out most hardware issues on my own but i am stumped. |

I have completely reinstalled windows onto the same ssd mentioned. I have played around with 11.12 , 12.1, and most recently the beta 12.2 release.
The only thing I haven't done is trying to install windows to a totaly different drive. I also hadn't checked BIOS for any pci-e options. |

Thanks....
good info for me. I think I may go for something in the 800 watt area. Would that be enough overhead if I do decide to go Crossfire? |
