AMD A10 crossfire

Go to solution Solved by PCBudgetSolutions,

They are backwards and forwards compatible PCI-E 2.0>3.0 and vise versa.  The best GPU I've seen supported by that APU in Xfire is an HD 7750, bit it's not officially supported.

Yes. A PCI-E 3.0 x16 card will work in 3.0 if it's in a 3.0 PCI-E slot. But they're all backwards compatible with each other. It should also tell you on your APU's box.

Also, an APU crossfire is quite ineffective when you look at the price/performance of a single overclocked 7850.
