TM

TM

CrossFireX

feature. CrossFireX

technology offers the most advantageous

means available of combining multiple high performance Graphics Processing

Units (GPU) in a single PC. Combining a range of different operating modes with

TM

intelligent software design and an innovative interconnect mechanism, CrossFireX

enables the highest possible level of performance and image quality in any 3D

TM

®

application. Currently CrossFireX

feature is supported with Windows

XP with

TM

TM

TM

Service Pack 2 / Vista

/ 7 OS. 3-way CrossFireX

and Quad CrossFireX

feature

®

TM

are supported with Windows

Vista

/ 7 OS only. Please check AMD website for

TM

TM

TM

benets of CrossFireX

. All three CrossFireX

components, a CrossFireX

TM

TM

Ready graphics card, a CrossFireX

Ready motherboard and a CrossFireX

Edition co-processor graphics card, must be installed correctly to benet from the

TM

CrossFireX

multi-GPU platform.

TM

2. If you pair a 12-pipe CrossFireX

Edition card with a 16-pipe card, both cards

TM

will operate as 12-pipe cards while in CrossFireX

mode.

2.6.1.1 Installing Two CrossFireX

-Ready Graphics Cards

TM

TM

Different CrossFireX

cards may require different methods to enable CrossFireX

feature. In below procedures, we use Radeon HD 5770 as the example graphics

TM

card. For other CrossFireX

cards that AMD has released or will release in the

future, please refer to AMD graphics card manuals for detailed installation guide.

Step 1. Insert one Radeon graphics card into PCIE1 slot and the other Radeon

graphics card to PCIE3 slot. Make sure that the cards are properly seated

on the slots.

2.10 Jumpers Setup

The illustration shows how jumpers are

setup. When the jumper cap is placed on

pins, the jumper is “Short”. If no jumper cap

is placed on pins, the jumper is “Open”. The

illustration shows a 3-pin jumper whose

pin1 and pin2 are “Short” when jumper cap

is placed on these 2 pins.

Jumper Setting Description

Clear CMOS Jumper

(CLRCMOS1)

(see p.2, No. 21)

Clear CMOSDefault

Note: CLRCMOS1 allows you to clear the data in CMOS. To clear and reset the sys-

tem parameters to default setup, please turn off the computer and unplug the

power cord from the power supply. After waiting for 15 seconds, use a jumper

cap to short pin2 and pin3 on CLRCMOS1 for 5 seconds. However, please do

not clear the CMOS right after you update the BIOS. If you need to clear the

CMOS when you just nish updating the BIOS, you must boot up the system

rst, and then shut it down before you do the clear-CMOS action. Please be

noted that the password, date, time, user default prole, 1394 GUID and MAC

address will be cleared only if the CMOS battery is removed.

The Clear CMOS Switch has the same function as the Clear CMOS

jumper.
