With the advent of Vega and DX12, CrossFireX is out and mGPU is in. mGPU does not have the "issues" of CrossFire and SLI.

AMD Bids Farewell To CrossFire After 12 Years, Retiring Brand In Favor Of mGPU .. ..The company is by no means ending multi-GPU support for its graphics cards, in fact its latest drivers enable multi-GPU support for its recently released Radeon RX Vega graphics cards with promises of 80%+ performance scaling..
..[With mGPU] One GPU could render one portion of the frame while the second could render another portion of the same frame for example. This is called Split Frame Rendering, SFR for short. This technique negates the limitations inherent in the traditional alternate frame rendering – AFR – technique used today in DX11 and older games,.
..it allows developers to force NVIDIA and AMD GPUs to work together...
The latest AMD GPU driver (AMD Crimson ReLive Edition 17.9.2 BETA) supports mGPU, they say.
