Thanks for the info.

So is this a head of me if i get a second one and go crossfire, or is it a case of if i don't have it now i might be ok?

Clayman, do you get this when only using a single card?

It's not to do with crossfire it is an issue with the displayport connector on the card and using some adapters. If you dont have the issue now you will be ok.

Correct. You should be ok with the second card.

I was able to get the latest bios update from Sapphire a while back, but at this point I don't know if any versions are going to make a difference. I guess the real question is whether or not the cards themselves are capable of handling it or if they could increase the DP drive strength with a future bios flash.

[quote]if this is true. I shake my head at the fluck up that is ATI

why is this a fuck-up? that's the way it's always been.

Excuse my ignorance. I never had Xfire or SLI.

it just seems like common sense to me.

It's like upgrading from a 2 seat car to a 4 seat car. but when you have the 3rd passenger want to get a ride. you tell him to go sit in the trunk. and when the 3rd passenger complain about it being uncomfortable, you tell him to buy some padding to put in the back... . :lol: :lol:

Looks as if there isn't going to be a solution anytime soon given the feedback, but thanks to those that chimed in. Just imaging your screen blacking out everytime you alt+tab out of the game to check something and having to turn it off/on to get it back. It's just frustrating is all.
