If your AMD CrossFire configuration requires an AMD CrossFire internal bridge

interconnect between cards, remove the protection tags from the ends of the

AMD CrossFire interconnect before using it to connect the cards.

Caution:

Always handle the AMD CrossFire bridge interconnect by the connector only.

Do not push or pull on the flexible cable.
