SLI or Crossfire Config Question?

[Cigarjohn]

Dual video cards in x8 or x16 mode. Which do you think is better and will I see any difference in performance?


Peace.

If you are running on a 30" display at 2560x1600 or below, an x8/x8 SLI or CFX configuration will perform the same as a x16/x8 or x16/x16 configuration. The only time that you should even be slightly concerned about running at x8/x8 is when you move up to a multiple display setup.

BTW: You could put all these questions into a single thread. No need to open up a new topic for each question.

I will be using 1 26" widescreen LCD with Res. at 1920x1200.

Then there should be no difference in performance between x16 and x8 SLI/CFX.
