I used to have four 5850s and they worked alright, but they only had 4 gigs of gddr5 as a whole, so I upgraded a bit and bought three 7970s, What is does is have it 2.0 x8 1.1 x8 and 1.1 x8 sometimes detects 896 MB of total dedicated gddr5 accross the 3 cards and sometimes detects like 3072 of dedicated, this is a little annoying, i have a rampage three extreme i7 950 4.4 ghz 18 gigs of 2200 mhz ram and 2 ssds, I hope somone has a solution l:
