Hybrid Xfire help

[S_I_N]

Hello all I have a gigabyte GA-MA785GMT-UD2H with hybrid xfire support ( ATI4200 or 3200 onboard) and a Sapphire HD4670 1gig DDR3 xfire capable card but I cant seem to get them in xfire. I followed the manuals settings for xfire even went to the extreme of reinstalling Win7 onboard first then adding card. But I cant seem to get CCC to give me the option to enable xfire. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Just want to play with it. Until I can do some upgrading to the whole rig.

thought hybrid xfire was available with the lower end gpus's like a 4550 not the 4670

lol ok that might explain it then but seriously LMFAO I never thought of this 4670 and not being low end hahahahaha basically I thought it to be lowend to start with but as I was just playing minimal games at the time and web surfing it was ok.

but just wanted to try out xfire to get my hands wet before I upgraded fully in the future. So I'd have a lil knowledge of what I'm doing. I stopped doing alot of hardcore stuff just as xfire and sli were starting to become popular. But I'm back into it again.

Thanks for the info now at least I know why its not giving me the options.

i have a acer ferrari one netbook with hd3200 igp, which is meant to work with an XGP (External Graphics Processor), however not many are around. although i have special drivers in order for me to be able to do this, through the acer updater service.

Download link for my specific setup

i guess there must be a similar sort of driver for doing this, seeing as i have the specific one for pairing the hd3200 to another ati gpu connected via xgp/dynavivid graphics dock.

Acer DynaVivid Graphics Dock- Mobility Radeon HD 4670

this is interesting, as its essentially an underclocked version of your gpu, and it works perfectly with the acer ferrari one (so thats a HD3200 IGP + Mobility HD4670

it should be possible on your setup, just im not sure where to get the drivers from

very interesting will have to look into that

ya, very similar hardware setup, so might just be a driver you need

well I have finally found some more info it seems that it would be a waste of time to do this as xfire works to lowest cards ability. so I'd be seriously dwarfing my 4670 if I did it.
