Crossfire on an SLI board?

[HannibalX]

Motherboard is an Asus A8N-32 SLI Deluxe (2 full 16x PCI-E 1.0 slots). Chipset is nForce 4.

Is there any way to run Crossfire on this board? I have two 8800 GTs running in SLI right now. I'd like to run two 4850s.

Google didn't help much. Any hacked drivers out there that will allow this?

Thanks in advance for any insight you can provide.

Nope.

Anyone else?

Flipped already answered your question: no.

If you want a mobo that does both SLI and Crossfire you'll need to upgrade to an X58 mobo and Intel's new Core I7 CPU and DDR3.

Apparently there has been some success with the 680 chipset. I have found two people who have made it work. I'll keep reading and update this thread.

Well, if you want to use driver version 88.something you can, but I would not recommend it. When drivers got into the 90's Nvidia took away the driver option to sli cards on an ATI board.

HP did the XFire/SLI thing with their Blackbird system. I don't know the details, but it was assuredly not with an NF4 chipset.
