what's the max size gaming card that the crossfire on this motherboard can use?

Are you referring to the physical card size? If so, this lovely MoBo supports any size video card that will fit into your case and that you have PSU that supports... and of course budget for!

That all depends on the case you use for this motherboard. Even though it is a M-ATX I would suggest an ATX case if you're planning on Crossfire or SLI because of second PCIe location for GPU, which it at the very bottom. The only M-ATX case that will allow use of the 2nd PCIe for GPU on this mobo is the Corsair 350 that I am aware of, it has 5 PCIe slots vs 4 which are found on most M-ATX cases. Besides that you can pretty much use any size GPU (single and double slot GPU). Be aware of limited room for cooling of using more than one GPU and if using anything other than R7 240 or R7 250 you will loose built in GPU advantage if planning on using an APU for this mobo. Since it is FM2 and FM2+ you can also use an Athlon CPU (same socket). If only using one GPU you can use any size to include a triple slot GPU. Hope this helps.

You can use any graphics card you want, as long as it fits the motherboard.

Yes. And 7970 only has 3GB GDDR5 per card. If you crossfire 2 of them, then you would have 6GB GDDR5 total. The crossfire interfaces are located on top of the 7970 next to the bios switch. Later AMD models like the R9 series can crossfire too, but they do it through the PCIe 3.0 bus. With a PCIe 3.0 bus you have enough bandwidth to not need the crossfire interfaces on top, so there are none.

This card can do a cross fire with an A10 6800K APU. I cross fired this card with the A10 6800K using the GIGABYTE GA-F2A85X-UP4 ATX Motherboard. However, when I installed it, I had to make sure that the UEFI BIOS enabled the GPU in the APU (basically just make sure you keep the integrated graphics enabled). It runs like a champ, it'll run several programs at once without a hiccup, and it plays several games using the high graphics quality settings.

Yeah, you should be able to crossfire it with a different manufacturer's card as long as it's a 7970. The clock/memory speeds will be set to the same for both cards, but it should work fine.

Most newer motherboards have multiple PCI-E slots. The graphics card (generally) uses a x16 slot, but there's normally some 1x, 4x, and/or 8x slots on the board as well. This cards is a 1x, so it will fit in any of the above assuming your GPU cooler or something else isn't covering the slot.

This mobo doesn't support SLI, only crossfire as it says, but u canuse a nvidia card alone

Unless the case/motherboard combo won't allow it, I don't see why this card wouldn't fit any standard PCI slot

yes you can, actually you can crossfire with one better than this card. well a friend told me that.

No, Crossfire is an AMD/ATI feature, not nVidia. It does support SLI, though.

Yes this i have a gtx 780 on this motherboard works like it should no sli only crossfire

Looking at the system requirement specs at Sapphire the only difference I could see was the 11222-06-20g supported CrossFireX and could not find any reference for the 11222-22--20g. This could be why the 122222-06 dimensions are larger than the 11222-22.

The card is 2.0 x16 compatible. Hopefully this will help you decide on your purchase.

I would have to say no.From the AMD website: "AMD CrossFire™ harnesses the power of two or more discrete graphics cards working in parallel to dramatically improve gaming performance."This board has only one PCIx16 slot so it should only be running one discreet card. Though I'm personally using the onboard video from an A series chip.

Even with case mods, not sure that would work. I installed a PNY GTX770 (VCGGTX7704XPB-OC2) which is listed at 10.5 --- and it was tough. Had to place the card in the case ahead of mounting the motherboard. Then carefully slide the card up and into the PCIe slot. Not much room to work with, but very nice when all done.

Guys at tom's hardware have done this test. Though not specifically for this card but for this chipset. http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/radeon-hd-6570-radeon-hd-6670-turks,2925-14.html. I haven't tried a crossfire config because my system allows only pci e slot. Hope this helps.

I installed in a full tower,so I cant answer for sure. The card is not bigger than my motherboard. I would suggest taking the dimensions given and measure how much room you have in your case.
