    Hi,

    Every vidcard with 2 "fingers" will give u 2/3/4 way SLi/Crossfire.
    Keep in mind tho that dual gpu card only support 2 cards = quad SLI/Crossfire,
    this due to windows limitations.

    Often 3/4 way SLi/XF wont give the extra boost u would expect. Dual cards give the most bang for bucks.
    Scaling is sadly not 100+100+100 but 100+80+40. Numbers are given as an example tho.
