Hi! After reading tests and reviews they often shows that two of HD 4670 cards can even outperform hd4850. I need 3 DVI outputs (dual monitor and projector), so buying one card and silencing it isn't an option. I am not a gamer, from time to time I play for fun.
So I found these cards ideal, good performance in crossfire and they are small (I want to keep fan on upper hdd cage in p182) and very cool.
But than, i found out that "Sapphire HD 4670 Ultimate" doesn't have connector for crossfire! Is there any "software" version of crossfire without bridge? Please help me, cards are ideal for me!
Thanks!

Dual 4670 seems a bit overkill if you're not a gamer. I would go for a motherboard with an IGP and one 4670, or perhaps an even cheaper card as long as it has dual DVI.

Not that I'm not a gamer, but very "light" gamer. I will maybe spend more money on gpu's cause I won't change them for some years. So is crossfire with those cards possible? Even without crossfire bridge? Thanks for replies!

Wouldn't something like the 4830 or waiting for the 4770 be a better alternative then?
Not sure about the bridging without cable though.

Will 4830 fit in my case with accelero S1 installed? With fan on hdd cage?
