Ok so I've saved up and I’ve got £400 from my old PC, so I get £400 off a Crossfire Machine that I would like to build. I'm not going to do this until next month sometime so I need all the advice I can get. So far I know that I need a master card to run another ATi card that’s crossfire compatible so this is what I have put together so far. I Want to use it for all that latest games like UR2007 so I need every new shader model everything you guys can think of that I have missed... 1 x Connect3d ATI Radeon X1900 512Mb Crossfire master card edition 1 x Sapphire ATI Radeon X1900 512M PCI-E Crossfire Edition MSI RD480 Neo2-FI SKT939 2xPCI-E Crossfire support DDR400 8channel audio LAN ATX Corsair (VS1GBKIT400C3) 1024MB (2 x 512MB Matched Pair), DDR400 / PC3200, non-ECC, Unbuffered, CL3, Memory Modules With Lifetime Warranty AMD Athlon 64 (ADA4400CDBOX) X2 4400+ socket 939 Dual Core 2.2Ghz 1Mb and 1Mb Cache I've got a 500Watt PSU and a Casebuy 413-C 250mm Side Fan That's all came from my Clawhammer Machine. And a 120GB Wester Digital HDD I might buy another one later. Anything else you can think of that I might need and will it all work? Thanks alot
Ok what do you think of this PSU http://www.overclock.co.uk/product.php?productid=19281&cat=265&view=rel&page= I'd like to go cheaper than that but if i have to spend that money i will. Ok ive found this one it peaks at 630Watt this one... Hiper 580W Type-R Modular PSU - Black with UV reacted cables
well you can try the 580 watt one i was reading more and i saw that "For CrossFire: 550 watt power supply or greater, 38 Amps on 12 volt rail Power supply must support 6-pin PCI Express connector (CrossFire requires 2 x 6-pin connectors)" but your always safer with a higher voltage then what it normally says so i'd say about a 650 Watt power supply would work
