Crossfire & SLI on ASRock 740i motherboard

This concept is cool - rivals what you can do with i7 X58 motherboards. Would offer a way to directly compare CF & SLI rigs on PhII chips versus the same setup on i7.
 
Not surprising. Dell sold systems with Nvidia core logic that supported both SLI and Crossfire. So it can be done.

Not sure if ASRock is stepping on anyone's toes, licensing-wise.

After all, one can add "BIOS hacks" to enable Vista activation (meaning, it auto-actives on those mobos), but is it legal? Would ASRock do that too?

Click to expand...

ASRock clearly believe it is legal; they are planning to expand this functionality to all of their SLi boards

Choice is good!
 
Well keep in mind that its a lot easier that way.
If (somehow) (someone) could get SLI to work on existing chipsets (P35, X38, P45, X48).....Then P55 and X58 Core i5 and Core i7 would be in quite a good deal of trouble.

Don't you think????
