To install the CrossFire™ bridge interconnects, see the Radeon
®
X1950 Pro CrossFire™ Getting Started Guide.
Which games/applications work with CrossFire™?
CrossFire™ works with all 3D games and applications. If Catalyst
®
A.I. is enabled in the Catalyst
®
Control Center software, the optimal
rendering mode available for the application is automatically selected.
Is a driver profile required to make CrossFire™ work?
No. CrossFire™ is enabled by default for all 3D games and
applications.
What are the rendering modes, and what are their specific
advantages?
The following dynamic rendering modes are available:
•
SuperTiling
- CrossFire™ renders alternate 32×32 pixel squares in
a fine-grained checkerboard pattern. This configuration increases
image-rendering quality, as each card processes the complex 3D
objects in the squares that are allocated to it.
•
Scissor Mode
- each graphics card renders up to half of the display,
either vertically or horizontally depending on the game or
application.
•
Alternate Frame Rendering
- the two graphics cards are used to
render alternate frames of the display. This configuration increases
the detail of the 3D objects each card can render, as each card
handles half of the total number of frames.
The features above are performance features, settings automatically
selected by ATI's Catalyst
®
Control Center.
You can instead enable Super Anti-aliasing, which is a display quality
mode selectable using Catalyst
®
Control Center.
