Well, that seems neat, but if you look carefully at the specs of that Sapphire motherboard,
you'll notice that theres only 1 x PCI-Express 16x Slot ...
And if you look here, http://www.a1-electronics.net/Graphi...ire_June.shtml , and notice the 3rd picture there showing 2 radeon cards both in a PCI-Express 16x Slot ...

I'm just wondering...

DFI Crossfire boards, please.

Nah, not gonna bother looking into the ATI manufacturer boards. Wait till Asus, gigabyte, or other tested-and-true motherboard companies start releasing their stuff.

But at least we know Crossfire is out soon.

How are you going to install 2 pci-express cards into that specific sapphire motherboard ?

EDIT : Im now talking about the ati crossfire ability.

There are 2 motherboards on the page the link was provided for. The 2nd board is a Crossfire mobo with 2 PCI-e x16 slots for 2 video cards for Crossfire.
