Your board is probablythe best 939 crossfire board there was. Did you here back if the 2900 was faulty or not ?
As for your original question I don't see why not assuming your psu is up to the task.
No i purchased the Sapphire HD 2900 xt from pc world belive it or not! & when i returned the card i informed them of my problem at there customer support desk & waited while they tested the card on one of there rigs but they didnt have the 6 pin power lead from the psu & asked me if i still had the 6 pin power lead from the psu to the card & informed them that it's not supplied with the card so they canibalised the only way overpriced 8800 gtx they had in stock on the shelf to retrieve this cable which was supplied with that card.
After testing the card that i had originally purchased to no joy they then opend up the second and last Sapphire HD 2900 xt from the shelf to see if they could get this card running & nope they could not they had the same problem as me so after opening 2 x Sapphire HD 2900 xt & a 8800 gtx just to get the lead they were scratching there heads & still had no clue why the card would not run & gave me a full refund.
Bit of a nightmare really!
I am thinking of trying this mobo SAPPHIRE PC-A9RD580Adv Socket 939 ATI CrossFire Radeon Xpress 3200 ATX AMD & from what information i can find this looks like the daddy to do the job! anyone tried this mobo on a rig with specs like my setup ?
