| Does Windows Vista support Ati Crossfire yet? I think it might but I am not sure. Also if I do Crossfire should I do it with two 3870 HD cards or wait for the 4800 HD cards to come out?
My Computer:
Windows Vista Ultimate Edition-ASUS M3A32-MVP WiFi Edition-AMD Phenom 9600 2.3 GHz Black Edition-4 GB DDR2-1000 (@1066 MHz)-Ati Radeon 3870 HD 512 MB-Two 320 GB SATA II Harddrives in RAID 0-800 Watt Tagan BZ Series Modular PSU

| AFAIK, support for Crossfire is embedded in ATI's drivers, which they claim have had Crossfire support since Catalyst v7.1. Given that they're now up to v8.4, it's a good bet that by this time, they actually have it working!

I'd wait, the 3870's aren't very special. ATI (AMD) seem to be flying up version numbers, driving the prices down on older models that aren't much different to the newer versions. If you want high end performance, nvidia is the only way to go atm. Its a shame because i'm not a fan of nvidia 
Asus-SLI Deluxe, AMD x2 4400 (oc'd to 5000), x1900xtx (oc'd), 2GB Corsair XMS RAM 2-3-3-6 (4x512), 500GB Maxtor HDD w/ 32mb cache, 300GB Maxtor HDD w/ 16mb cache, Creative Audigy 4 (Daniel Driver Set), HVR-1100 Dvb-t hybrid TV card, 580W Hiper Type M PSU. 5.0 score on Vista Ultimate x64, 6040 3DMark 06' score on XP |
