hey gang just wanted to bring some attention to the sli hack/mod, it works lovely it literally took me 4 mins to run sli on a p45 crossfire mobo, it only took so long because my dsl sucks a fat one(dl for the drivers). this site was very usefull and it seems to work for x86 and 64 bit os's up to winblows 7. Link

ok so what im looking for is some feedback, if have the equipment try it out and post your scores 3d mark, i used 3dmark 06 from what i have found the p45 has a nice perfomance upgrade compared to "sli" mother boards wich are made stricktly for sli,"lmfao"

i have a different thread with my scores, just starting this frankenstien of a rig, i cant wait to put these on a loop with some triple rads........

I didn't plan on running SLI when i got the board. I got it because it was a great deal and was thinking about Xfire but I ended up with Nvidia cards because there monsters at F@H
