Using sli bridge to crossfire amd cards

[TheEatenCookie]

Hello!

So i have a question:Can i use sli bridge to crossfire amd cards?

If no then please explain why i cant?

Thanks all the answers to be given.

PS:I live in Estonia

Nope. Simple answer: Nvidia don't want you to. 

 

EDIT: It's the same the other way round. I don't think there are many differences between SLI and Crossfire bridges, but they're made in a way that will only let them work with either AMD or Nvidia cards. 

 

Refer to WoodenMarker's answer (:

No you cant.

Because they use different technologies/interfaces.

PS:I live in Germany (?!)

[WoodenMarker]

No. They have physically different connectors.

AMD cards don't use bridges anymore. It's all done over the PCIE slot.

Pins do not match up

Nope. Simple answer: Nvidia don't want you to. 

They are completely different technologies... as Woodenmarker said, they're physically completely different connectors. This isn't related to Nvidia or AMD being greedy.

Ah, I haven't actually looked at a Crossfire bridge before (in person), never noticed how different they actually are.

Though the end goal is the same: dual GPU rendering. Nvidia and AMD actually go about it in surprisingly different ways, hence all the fuss with frame pacing on the AMD a while ago when Nvidia was barely affected.

Sorry but no
