Hi,

I have the Gigabyte 3D1 (non XL) and yes you do need a specific motherboard to run it. Do you have an AMD or Intel system?

Look on this page for info on what mobo you can use it with. (bottom right)

I have the GA K8NXP-SLi and it is one great board if you can get hold of it. I think it's their flagship AMD model.

I'm not too sure about the Intel motherboards.

Yes, if it is not with a compatible motherboard then it will run in single GPU mode.

It should be a good card, the single fan on it should be quieter than my dual fan heatsink, it's the loudest thing in my pc :(
