Hello all,

I am running my beautiful hackintosh (Custom Pro build - thanks, Tony!) on an i7 and Sapphire 5770 1GB. With an extra hard disc, I installed Windows 7 and am dual booting with great success.

Simple question: can I CrossFire with an extra gfx card for use in Windows 7 without any affect on my OSX side. I know CrossFire isn't supported in OSX, so all I want is for OSX to continue to use one GPU, ignore the other, while Win7 will make use of the pair when I boot in.

Because that would own!

Thanks in advance guys.
 
I just got 2 5870 crossfired yesterday without any issues. Just follow these steps and you should be good to go.

One KEY thing that you need to know, both cards MUST be the exact same model. Which can make things a little harder. I got my off eBay after waiting about a week for one to be listed.
