The computer works great except one thing.

For some reason, the computer recognizes the 2 video cards but they're not crossfiring... Tried some stuff but I'm not sure what to do... any suggestion?

So they show up but you're not getting the performance boost or they're not read as operating in crossfire mode?

The motherboard recognizes them but doesn't work in crossfire.

Ya you just attach the two together on the side right? And does it have to be fully stretched? its bended on the middle b/c the graphic cards are close together.

Yeah, that should be fine. You might want to try updating your motherboard's chipset drivers, I hear that can also cause issues with Crossfire.

I have four almost identical systems to yours. After installing a Windows OS, download the software from the site. The ATI or Nvidia graphics control center app. That'll let you access the card's BIOS and turn it on.

dl the latest catalyst drivers. eyefinity and crossfire working together is trickier tho. but i got mine to work as well.

@.@ Somehow got crossfire to work <3 such an overkill tho... I don't play games much and ones that Ive dled can play max settings on 1 of my graphic card lol.. (Assassin's creed, GTA and such)

But it's such a rediculous upgrade going from my 7 years old shit computer that could barely run WoW and a 18inch monitor.... Mesmerized by how fast SSDs are and the huge 26inch monitor @@

btw recommend me some gewd games or something to put this thing to use lol
