ATI CrossFire Info @ Inquirer

The Inquirer has a lot of leaked info on the new ATI CrossFire. How accurate all of this info is, we can’t be sure until it’s officially unveiled at Computex.

Apparently, you will need a “Master Card”, which is an official ATI produced video card, that will connect to your other ATI card. ATI is supposed to be the only company to produce the Master Card. You can actually see a picture of the card here.

They also have a picture of how the two cards will be connecting, via the external dongle. You can see that pic here.

The editor notes that unlike SLi, CrossFire will improve ALL games, not just the ones with set profiles. Also, two X850XTPE’s beat out two 6800U’s by 10% in 3D Mark 2005. They even said that it is 60% faster in NFSU: 2, and 100% faster in ‘a’ Splinter Cell game.

More information and stats can be found here. Again, the resource may be incorrect on some things. We will find out a lot more I’m sure this coming Tuesday, so stay tuned.
