ATI is offering a $100 Mail-in-rebate after buying a crossfire card.

To get this rebate you need to:

3.) Buy an X8 series Crossfire Edition card
4.) Send codes back to ATI.

ATI promises to send a $100 check to you within 8 weeks.

Currently ATI ships numerous RADEON X8-series graphics cards for PCI Express x16 bus that may power dual-GPU systems in collaboration with RADEON X8 CrossFire Edition products. Pricing of RADEON X8 family of products starts at $199 and ends at $549. ATI’s RADEON X8 CrossFire Edition graphics cards will be priced at $249, $299 and $549 depending on the model.

For those that already have a X8 series card, this will make it easier to get a second card.

    jradmin Nice move on ATI's part to curb all the negatives from pulling back their new GPU.

    TheBaron too bad there's not an AGP version...
  3. baopee .....how can there be an AGP version of crossfire when dual AGP slots does not exist?!? Sure it would be techncially possible to build crossfire via AGP+PCI but it would be pointless since the bandwidth is just not there.

    HELLO!?!?! Whenever some news comes out regarding multi-gpu technology, you can always count on some random misinformed/uninformed idiot complaining about "there isn't an AGP ver." This will never fail because the downside to the spread of information via the web is that it allows idiots to say what they want. ppft

    TheBaron i'm perfectly aware there's no dual AGP boards you ****wit. don't hammer me with that misinformation **** if you're too much of a wuss to register and do it through private messages. my complaint was that I recently bought an X800XT AGP version, and I was just fantasizing about how it would be cool if crossfire was possible for AGP. I mean hell, if you're claiming that PCI-Express+AGP is possible, why isn't dual AGP possible? eh?

    entropy Actually, wasn't Alienware working on that? I vaguely remember, just before nVidia announced SLi, that Alienware was just a hair away from shipping their custom boards with dual AGP slots. I dunno - they had their own internal interface/balancing system and everything.

    I might be wrong, but I could've sworn...

    TheBaron I seem to recall that as well

    mmonnin PCI-E + AGP is possible. I saw a PCI-E board with full support for AGP and not derived from PCI.

Howdy, Stranger!
