    Thanks Dev. I realize its the x38 chipset and thats why I was asking since I didnt see any mention from dell of it specifically supporting the technology.

     

    i guess i can always try and see what happens,but im hoping someone has some first hand experience.

    I don't think it officially does, but the system has the Intel X38 chipset with 2 x PCIe 16x slots (16 lanes each) (see user's guide here)

     On other (non-Dell) motherboards X38 chipsets have supported Crossfire (e.g. Asus P5E, so I'd think it's possible here too.

    Although two Nvidia 8800GTX would offer the best performance, the X38 does not support SLI. Currently, only AMD/ATI can take advantage of dual-card operation on X38-based boards.

    I have seen the pdf sheet of t3400.....didn't get your point. You mean to say that t3400 can support crossfire not SLI?
