In order to ensure that your graphics card can work correctly, please use

official GIGABYTE BIOS only. Using non-official GIGABYTE BIOS might

cause problem(s) on the graphics card.

The entire Radeon HD 4670/4650 series support HDMI output which can handle both audio

and video signals. However, audio output from the onboard audio controller or the external

sound card will be disabled when HDMI output is activated.

If no need for HDMI output function, set the onboard audio controller or the external sound

card to be the default Sound Playback device to obtain audio output from your system. For

more details, refer to page 16.

How to enable the ATI CrossFireXTM technology?

Step 1:

Install two CrossFireX graphics cards of the same chipset on a CrossFireX-supported motherboard and

connect the graphics cards via two CrossFire bridge interconnect cables (Figure 1). Then users can

enable the CrossFireX technology through the graphics card driver.

interconnect cables. TwoCrossFiregraphics cardsofthe sametype.

(Example: GV-RX195P256D-RH)

Figure 1

Step 2:

After installing graphics card driver in operating system, when an ATI CrossFireX configuration is

detected for the first time by the ATI Catalyst display driver, ATI CrossFireX support is automatically

enabled, and the best possible GPU combination is selected based on the hardware configuration.

IfATI CrossFireX is not enabled, access the ATI Catalyst Control Center (please refer to Page 14). From

theATI Catalyst Control Center, enter the CrossFireX menu and assure to select the Enable CrossFireXTM

check box (Figure 2).
