A Question.

Mr.V

Hello!
I want to ask you all a question.
My brother has a GA 880GM USB3 with an fx 6100 and a HD6770.
He wants to ask that can he pair another HD6770 on this board?
Is the board crossfire supported?
There is not enough info on google.

Thank You!

^^ it says it has cf support but you have to hybrid cf with onboard gfx
ATI Hybrid Graphics Technology support
ATI Hybrid Graphics is a technology umbrella brand encompassing several technologies, such as ATI Hybrid CrossFireX™, ATI SurroundView™, ATI PowerPlay™, etc. that allow both an AMD integrated graphics processor and a discrete graphics processor to work co-operatively on an AMD based system to provide enhanced gaming performance, productivity and platform efficiency to the mainstream PC.
also from wiki
Right now the latest generation of Hybrid Crossfire pairs an 890GX or 880G (Radeon HD4290 and HD 4250 respectively) motherboards from the AMD 800 chipset series with an HD 5450, 5550, 5570 or 5670 Radeon video card from the Radeon HD 5000 series.[3]
so he has to use HD 5450, 5550, 5570 or 5670

@ Mr.V

Your board doesn't have a 2nd pci-e slot. So no question of plugging in a 2nd card. :)

hd6770 can't be CFed with HD6770 but you can CF a HD6750 with HD6770 but you need to have a mobo with 2x pci-e x16 slot for that
may be toppy wanted to say 6570.it is just a typo i guess.

@ sukesh1090, Piyush, Liverpool_fan and Jas - thanks guys - it was just a typo ;-)

@ OP - like I said before you can't CF the HD6570 you have with a new HD6770 and as your bro's mobo has only single pci-e x16 slot you better get a powerful single gpu like HD6850 or above.
