Question 1

What does CrossFireX of this card do?

Accepted Answer

CrossfireX is the name of the technology for combining the graphics power of two or more AMD GPUs. You'd need a motherboard that supports it plus two video cards that support it.

Combining two HD 6450's in CrossfireX won't perform nearly as well as one decent gaming card. But if you can get the cards cheap enough & you have a motherboard that supports it, it certainly wouldn't hurt to give it a try. Personally, I knew exactly what I was getting when I bought this card; if I had wanted a card for gaming, I wouldn't have even considered an HD 6450.

Question 2

Will this work in a PCI express 16 2.0 slot in a HP p7-1240 desktop?

Accepted Answer

i believe so: there is a standard bracket in the box which should mount with your computer.

Question 3

The card says supporting CrossFireX, but I don't see the 'bridge' to cross 2 cards on the picture. So how this one supported CrossFire?

Accepted Answer

You have to purchase the bridge separately.  You can buy one at newegg for 6.99.  You must have two cards with the same chipset.   You don't need the bridge ifyou have an apu processor that supports dual graphics.  Your mobo must also support it.  You should have a good power supply of at least 400 watts.

Question 4

How many power supply watts it need to run this?

Accepted Answer

This will run fine on even a 200 W power supply.  The card itself barely uses 30 W under unrealistic load.

Question 5

Can this handle Crysis 3 on 4K, 4xAA?

Accepted Answer

This card just barely meets minimum requirements to run the game. I highly doubt it would be able to run the game with those settings.

Question 6

Can I use two VGA monitors?

Accepted Answer

yes but you'll need adapters (hdmi to vga; dvi to vga)

Question 7

what is the item weight with retail box anyone know?

Accepted Answer

Not sure of the actual weight since mine is in my HTPC, but I'd guess the total shipping weight is between 6 - 8 oz.

Question 8

Does this product support HDCP?

Accepted Answer

couldn't find any information... try emailing power color...i rarely use this computer. good luck

Question 9

What is the maximum resolution of this card?

Accepted Answer

HDMI 1.4a     Max resolution: 1920x1200
Dual-link DVI with HDCP    Max resolution: 2560x1600
VGA    Max resolution: 2048x1536

Single-link DVI is 1920x1200.  It is unlikely to run higher than this, but if you can afford a monitor that size, you can afford a better graphics card.

Question 10

Will this graphics card work with a windows XP operating system?

Accepted Answer

This card works fine on XP, W7. I am using it on an XP computer that I use regularly and have had no problems with it. I also have used a  MSI 6450 on a W7 computer for years without any problem. I bought the AX6450 because I needed a small form card for a small form Dell GX 620. It made a big improvement in the graphics
