    Sapphire HD4870 1GB + Gigabyte GA-GV-R487D5-1GD

    Hi

    I know you can mix and match to a degree for Crossfire but would anyone here see a problem with matching the above up?

    My board is a Giga EX58 UD5

    TIA

    As far as I can tell they are both absolutely stock 4870 1GB cards, so there should be no problem at all.
