ATI Radeon HD 3870 X2 CrossFireX - The power of 4 GPUs is now possible with AMDs ATI CrossFireX technology. We evaluate two Radeon HD 3870 X2 cards in CrossFireX on an Intel Core 2 Quad system, powering Crysis, COD 4, and UT3 seeing the gameplay experience produced compared to a Radeon HD 3870 X2 and a Radeon HD 3870.
Quad CrossFireX is appealing from a technical hardware enthusiast standpoint. However, it doesnt exactly produce the gameplay experience advantages needed to live up to the price tag required. The one game that really needs it, doesnt utilize it very efficiently yet, and the other games that do already have a great gaming experience on just one Radeon HD 3870 X2.
