How to use crossfire on a 1x pcie videocard and pcie16x

If you are interested to know how crossfiring is done, here is one good example when someone asked before about crossfiring two video cards, an ATI Radeon HD HD4870 X2 and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX-280. Doing a crossfire can only be done on 2 PCI-Express cards. And the result is not always successful as what you would expect. Usually, users would expect a great boost in the computer’s performance after doing the crossfire on their 2 video cards. But the result isn’t always like that.

Here is a little history about the crossfire thing. CrossFire or what is now known as AMD CrossFireX is a brand name for the multi-GPU solution. It was originally developed by ATI Technologies and was later used by Advanced Micro Devices or AMD. This technology is used to improve the computer’s graphic performance by allowing up to 4 GPUs to be used on a single machine.
