This provides a useful upgrade option for anyone who owns an existing Radeon HD card and has a CrossFire compatible motherboard. For example, the Radeon HD 7770 and Radeon R7 250X both use the 'Cape Verde XT' chip so have identical specifications and will work in CrossFire mode. Since Q2 of 2018 availability of AMD GPUs as well as pricing has, in most cases, returned to normal.īecause many of the products in the range are rebadged versions of Radeon HD products, they remain compatible with the original versions when used in CrossFire mode. This led to limited supply and huge price increases of up to 164% over the MSRP in Q4 of 2013 and Q1 of 2014.
