W Wog2000 Baseband Member Messages 64 Location Montreal, Canada Jan 11, 2008 #1 I am thinking of adding an HD 3870 to my puter in crossfire. Will this cause any problems? My concern is the 3870 has 10.1 and my 2900 is 10.0.

Click to expand... thats true... but I'm just talking about the people who said it has to be the same card, I think it can be any cards in the same series
