For all the ATi/AMD lovers out there who wish they could use their crossfire setup on a Nvida/Intel chipset, your prayers have been answered
THE FIRST TIME Crossfire technology was demonstrated on an Nvidia board was when Rahul Sood talked about VoodooDNA in an Nforce configuration with Diamond Radeon HD2900XT boards in none other than HP's Blackbird 002 machine.

And now Diamond Multimedia has expanded these horizons with its entry to the retail/e-tail frame with xDNA technology.

We hear that Diamond will make a big announcement at the end of next week, as the company gears up its Radeon products and enables them to work on Intel, AMD and Nvidia chipsets in Crossfire mode.

Now all AMD needs to do is make a card that is powerful enough without need to add another 1, 2, or 3 cards to equal one 8800GT

You can SLI on a Crossfire chipset.

Yes but not in the case of G80s.I would love to see G80 SLI in my Xfire board but that'll never be possible,i think.Nvidia is not so kind to let their technology be used on other chipsets.
