My System Specs

Default Ati's Crossfire Bridges are all the same right?
x1950 and up anyway... Gotta be, right? My 4770 didn't come with one, I don't think the other one I'm looking at comes with one either, so I have one from a 3870.

I am pretty sure.

My 4830's did not come with any so I just grabbed some Generic ones from a local computer shop. I do recommend using 2 bridges though.

1 vs 2 bridges. (CF'd HD3870 3DM06 compares)

One will do fine, unless the extra shaders make a difference...

Now, can 2 4770's, beat a 4870X2...

They should all be the same, yes.
