Cross-Fire Ready Motherboards

The latest high-end motherboards have their primary considerations the ability to use two video cards to improve the gaming performance.  When ATI first kicked off they realized they had to come up with a stable platform if the Cross-Fire multi-GPU technology was to gain public attention.  NVIDIA had already put their foot forward on their popular nForce4 SLI chipset, but ATI did not have a direct competitor that offered a pair of PCI-Express slots.  And in effort to ease the problem the  company reconfigured their Radeon Xpress 200 chipset which was then re-branded to  the Cross-Fire version.

What is Cross-Fire?  Cross-Fire is a high performance PC gaming technology that enables multiple ATI Radeon graphics cards and a Cross-Fire ready motherboard thereby increasing graphics quality and performance.  The technology is an incredibly mind blowing experience through outstanding visual realism in the latest 3D titles and brilliant image quality at extreme HD resolutions.  Cross-Fire technology has redefined the PC gaming platform with industry leading performance, scalability, image quality, and compatibility.
