Its ok not that long la, still can fit in most cases...

my question is most PSU has only 1 8-pin and 1 6-pin so for me i only can use 1 of this card...
i wonder what psu is able to hold these cards in crossfire setup? any idea? what voltage? 800w minimum? hmm.gif

I have got another question here regarding the hd3870 CF vs hd3870x2...
wouldnt it be better using hd3870 CF as they are using DDR4 while hd3870x2 using DDR3...

so are there any negatives in DDR3 vs DDR4 while both also 1gb? any idea? hmm.gif
