Crossfire Problem

[TheReaper]

Hey

The problem is that i have two msi radeon rx 5500 xt mech 8g oc on my mobo MEG X570 GODLIKE X570 and mobo and those gpus support crossfire but in amd control panel i dont find that option. I already tried reinstall those drivers ,but still nothing. I hope you guys can help me with this.

I'm pretty sure that no Navi cards support Crossfire.

Navi as a whole doesn't support cf. 

Either way it doesn't make much of a difference for gaming as it has little to no performance benifits and doesn't scale well.

but amd says in their website that it is crossfire compatible and my my mobo says same

The board is cf compatible. But afaik the 5500xt doesn't support cf at all. As in like it doesn't have the slot to put a cf bridge.

No mention of Crossfire whatsoever on the 5500XT's page.

Your motherboard does support Crossfire, yes, but the GPU does not.

bestbuy says that it has crossfire (i didnt buy it from bestbuy)

first of all the 580 does support cf, second of all, this does not mean the card supports it. 

you physically can't with the 5500xt.

i had to use translation on this page but this is the site where i bought those 2 rx 5500 xt 8g oc and it says that it has crossfire.

this is so weird.

What was the plan here, if you don't mind me asking? I honestly can't think of a use case where an X570 Godlike and double 5500XTs (even if crossfire worked) would be a good combination

Im using that pc for gaming and editing

The Navi cards do NOT support crossfire from what I can find on the AMD website.

The RX 580 is the last card I see that lists crossfire on the features list.  Crossfire is dead so is SLI.

 

I'm going to guess that Best Buy and the other shops just copy and paste most of the specs from other cards and maybe just change clock speeds and stuff.

[TheReaper]

well any good recommendations from amd budget is 350€

[Izineth]

Finland I'm guessing from your earlier post?

 

Verkkokauppa has a RX 5700 for 369€ if you can stretch the budget a tiny bit.

 

If not they have a RX 5600XT for 329€

i did little bit research and only 2/3/4 way cf gpu is rx 580 but you can guess those are sold out but few weeks and they gonna get more hopefully.

You should not be Crossfiring / SLI'ing with lower-end GPU anyways -- like the 5500 XT.

best solution is always one powerful GPU, rather than two weaker GPUs.

Even *IF* there is Crossfire / multi-GPU support, scaling is not 100%.

 

If you want 2x 5500 XT performance, than 5700 or 5700 XT is your solution.

Or RTX 2080 Super / 2080 Ti.
