Configuration
If you are planning on using this graphics card as part of a CrossFireX system, the following
is required:
- A CrossFireX certified motherboard with two PCI Express x16 slots and correct chipset driver
- One or two CrossFire bridge interconnect cables
Step 1:
Install two CrossFireX graphics cards of the same chipset on a CrossFireX-supported motherboard and
connect the graphics cards via two CrossFire bridge interconnect cables (Figure 1). Then users can
enable the CrossFireX technology through the graphics card driver.

Step 2:
After installing graphics card driver in operating system, when an AMD CrossFireX configuration is
detected for the first time by the AMD Catalyst display driver, AMDCrossFireX support is automatically
enabled, and the best possible GPU combination is selected based on the hardware configuration.
If AMD CrossFireX is not enabled, access the AMD Catalyst Control Center (please refer to Page 14).
