Small question

[Shd0w2]

Is it possible to have an R9 295X2 in a minitx system which doesn't have more than one PCI slot, but have say a 690 or the R9 295X2 in it despite no SLI/CROSSFIRE support?

 

I assume no, but its possible, maybe?

Possible, you just need to find a case that will fit the card and everything.

My question isn't the size of the card or anything, its that the motherboard manufacturer says it doesn't support SLI/Crossfire. What i'm debating is if the 295X2 or 690 will allow both to be used at same time. I'd need evidence as to why also.

It'll work, from what I'm gathering from Google searches. I think it's because dual GPU cards act as one GPU despite having two.

They say that because ITX motherboards only physically have one PCI-E slot.

 

If i could afford a 295x2 and full waterblock, i'd stick one in my Prodigy.

That's what I thought, but what if the bios isn't supporting it on the software side?  Whatever I wish I could even afford either of those

Software wise, ITX boards are exactly the same as ATX. I'm sure some madman has jammed a 295x2 into an ITX build somewhere on the interwebz

Although I assume its a modded bios, bringing back to my main point about if ITX motherboards could support it stock, which I think is a no, but its cool to know modded bios are there

Aparently Harware Canucks did.

As far as i know, both the Impact (itx) and Hero (atx) have the exact same bios.

Damn. And Linus did stuff a Titan in an ITX case too.
