GA870A-USB3L rev3.1 & Xfire

[franny]

Hy all,I did a Sys upgrade a few days ago to this M'board.I am running a Phenom2x6 1100t with 4gb of Corsair XMS DDR3 Ram.My Graphics is a pair of Powercolor 4870HD ATI Cards and powered by an 850w PSU.All connections are correct,Xfire Bridge is on.Now my problem is how do I enable Xfire.Windows7 x64 recognizes both cards in Devive Manager,and reports No Conflicts.Yet the AMD/ATI Software says the second card is Disabled,and I can find no options to enable Xfire or the Second Card.Does anyone have any ideas what the problem could be and how to solve it,thanks in advance guys.

Hi there

are you using the latest ATI Catalyst Graphics drivers 11.6? If not try them and see if that makes a difference. You can download them from here: http://sites.amd.com/us/game/downloads/Pages/radeon_win7-64.aspx

Don't forget to load the drivers for both cards individually. Each card must have it's own drivers installed.

I just loaded the drivers on again for the second card,still disabled and still no options to enable Xfire.I am already using the 11.6 driver package from ATI.I also tried the 11.5 drivers,still the same though.Thanks for the suggestions anyway.I suppose I will just have to keep trying.AMD/ATI Forum didnt help.You would think that they would have such driver/software problems sorted after 5-6 years Xfire has been going,or is that too much to ask.

The  GA870A-USB3L is not an AMD CrossFireX motherboard. If you want CrossFireX you need a different model. Check the specs for CrossFireX compatibility.

Nice spot Tiger, I missed that one!
