    At first, I figured they would, being competitive with other P55 boards, but it appears that they do not support CrossFire.

    I don't see why it wouldn't. It's an intel X58 chipset, it should work with Crossfire.

    I was looking at the P55 ones; didn't even think about the P58.

    The specs page of the P55 boards on the EVGA website don't say a thing about it. I was thinking the same thing though; I figured it was just a "Universal" type of thing. Maybe it does support CrossFire, just that it's not advertised?

    ASUS has always hade good boards. It's their firmware that's been very hit and miss, and still is. Some BIOSs have "known issues" that are pages long and contain very basic problems, some are almost problem free.

    Same deal, it's an intel chipset and it'll support Crossfire. EVGA is just an nVidia AIB partner and isn't going to talk about Crossfire.
