AMD Radeon HD 6970 & 6950 (CaymanXT & CaymanPro) from AMD

[Micbuns1]

would i be able to use my 6850 in crossfire mode with 6970?

[hoodlumfromavk]

@Micbuns1

no to use xfire you need two of the same cards, you can mix and match brands though.

[Bastometer]

@Micbuns1

Yes, you are able to do so but then your 6970 will run at the speed of your 6850 and that wouldn't be so smart

[Micbuns1]

@Bastometer awwwww ok thx

[AsianPerson3]

@Micbuns1 Not u can always Flash the Bios from the 6950 to be a 6970.

[Micbuns1]

@AsianPerson3 thats not what i was talking about and its not 100

% that it will work + i was talking about using it in crossfire with a 6850... and it doesnt work

[AsianPerson3]

@Micbuns1 Yes but, it does work.

[Micbuns1]

@AsianPerson3 u have to get the older 6950 cuz there making new ones so ppl cant do that

[AsianPerson3]

@Micbuns1 yeh thats true

Will the 6970 work in crossfire with the 6870? sorry for being dumb but crossfire confuses me.

[conhopper78]

Oh it is SO a coincidence that so soon after the new Futuremark came out, Ati releases a matching graphic card. Or is it? :)

These require a full sized tower right?

they wont fit in a mid size?

[bakoffice]

@siukingbon they will fit in my mid tower, a lian li P50

[paulhojda]

@siukingbon no it's about as long as the old 5870 so if that fitted in the mid size tower this will fit as well
