			<description><![CDATA[Most motherboards will have one 16x and one 4x PCI Express slot. If you put two video cards in in Crossfire or SLI mode the two slots will switch to 8x mode. This is still plenty fast enough to handle the two cards.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[in regards to video cards, you mentioned that having mutiple video cards has a depreciating return on investment. therefore, you suggested buying a "good" primary card and then cheaper cards with similar specs to do "crossfire" or "sli" with. How will minor changes between card effect the output? and which specs are most inportant to keep equal?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I recently purchased a motherboard that had 2 PCI Express x16 slots. However, it says one runs at x16 mode and one at x4 mode. How is the x4 different? Will it affect trying to Crossfire? And can I change it to run at x16 mode?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[On AMD systems in the BIOS there is a setting for CPU Clock Speed and the default is 200MHz. This is actually the reference clock setting. The reference clock is then multiplied by a number (16 for example) to give you the actual CPU frequency. 200x16 is 3200 or 3.2GHz. Now the video card mentioning 380MHz, that is probably the speed of the graphics processor on the video card. If that is the case it will probably working with your system but you need to find more information. The most important things to look at when buying a video card are the slot type, PCI Express 2.0 16x which is the standard right now and the amount of power the video card needs. Your motherboard needs to have a PCI Express 2.0 16x slot and you have to check your power supply to make sure it has enough power to support the video card.]]></description>
