So... is it Crossfire compliant?


There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the universe is for it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more inexplicable.
There is another theory which states that this has already happened.

Would have been more believable if it used a contemporary plug instead of one off of some device from 1958.

What do you mean "more believable"? I, for one, am happy that AMD has decided to go with an AC outlet as it will reduce the cable clutter in the case. It's a great design idea!

PS: re: 220 v is this only for the European market?

I got a cable with the same plug on it with a Gateway monitor I got a couple of years ago, it also had a UK and EU spec cables with it

I imagine they'll release a similar design for the NA market as well. I'd rather not have to sell my ATXXXX on eBay, the cost of shipping scares most buyers away...

that's by far the worst photo shopped image i've ever seen... obviously a quick insult job done by a nVidia fan boy.

It doesn't look that far off the mark of the old Voodoo5 6000.

Now I have Red Baron theme music in my head...*sigh*


The road less traveled is filled with fewer needy people.

Right, I forgot they use odd looking plugs in the UK/EU.

Nah, but you may have to move your pc into the laundry room to share the plugs with the washer and dryer. wink
