Hybrid CrossFire?

Does the ATI Hybrid CrossFire on AMD 700 chipsets benefit games? I'm having trouble understanding how these new technologies work.

Short answer: Yes. 2 cards working together > one. Just remember you still need a good processor, the cards can only process data as fast as the processor sends it.

Hmmm....but it doesn't work with newer Radeon cards? (e.g. 4830)

edit: after researching more information it doesn't look like this will work (not going to upgrade to Vista)
