HIS Crossfire Bridge Interconnect Cable

I had to purchase two of these cables because, though they were listed as included in the XFX Radeon 1GB 4890 vid cards I bought recently, they did not show up in the box. The cables seem fairly well made, flexible but not brittle with handy little tabs at the end to aid removal if necessary. I purchased from Amazon because Amazon gave me credit for the missing cables, but if I had to do any price-shopping I would have I think found an alternative for less.

Install dual video cards from AMD, connect the two video cards by sliding the cup at the end of the bridge cable over the pins at the top of the video card near the back of the computer case, turn on the system, open Catalyst and start CrossfireX. It couldn't be easier to improve the graphics by 180%.The original Crossfire had a 2 to 1 cable that had to be attached to both cards outside the case, then attached to the video cable for a single monitor. The new setup allows me to have three monitors with an extreme wide angle view of the same game. Absolutely great!

Connects a couple cards, does it's job. Sad it no longer comes packaged with cards as a standard, or available direct from manufacturers for a buck or two, but if you need one, this will do the job. I paired an MSI R9 270 with an ASUS R9 270, works a treat.

I needed to replace this on a desktop I built. When I removed the old one part of the plastic broke off. This one will replace it even though it's a little longer in length I dont truely believe I will have any problem with it.

My video cards (2 Radeon HD 5750's) did not come with these cables and my mobo did not come with these cables. In fact, this was my first crossfire setup and I didn't know these cables even existed. Yes, I am using a plural tense, if you have two video cards, you will need TWO of these cables to enable crossfire mode. But onto the cable itself... the quality is good, plugged them in and they worked perfectly. Would buy again.

extortion from the hardware vendor. had to buy two of these babies and they are not cheap considering they are a fifty cent item. i bought an asus mother board and they gave away their version of the crossfire... unfortunately, i bought a msi video card that requires these crossfire connectors. It would have left a better taste in my mouth had the connectors cost a reasonable price ($5) but they did not.

Arrived ahead of time. I'm still using these is my current desktop gaming/DAW setup. They are pretty rugged for computer parts and I haven't had an issue (and I run my computer constantly). I've done two graphic card swaps and these haven't posed a problem. Good quality. Be warned that you need at least two of these between 2 graphic cards.

What can you really say it hooked both cards together and they kick some gaming booty, best when games are made for Crossfire. And FYI the Crossfire or SLI slots are a set distance apart on most all good MoBo's so length should not be a big deal. This one worked on an MSI i7 MoBo like a charm.
