nVidia's advertising for its Hybrid SLI makes much of the power consumption implications. The major benefit is not increased graphics speed all the time but the fact that you can add a discrete GPU and its noisy fan and big power sucking board will be off most of the time, and when activated they'll be run in a low-power mode (with the ports off) to accelerate the IGP's graphics (using the motherboard's ports). There is in this article no mention of the power implications of ATI's solution, though obviously an always-on PC has its own power consumption challenges.
There needs to be a comparison article about the various ways IGP and discrete GPUs can collaborate, with one table listing all the features one might care about:
This is an evolving technology and will possibly require some integration of comparison tables from multiple sources.
In general when dealing with motherboard features like this a list of current mainboards that support them (see GeForce_8200 for example) is helpful but they must be carefully marked "as of" when the comparison was valid. Even just a snapshot however is very useful when trying to track stuff like this. If the table is there, anyone that actually researches the question might update it but they are extremely unlikely to create a new table from scratch. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.177.103.157 ( talk) 04:41, 18 December 2009 (UTC)
I cannot find info about which modern cards support this mode - Hybrid CrossFire. I see only 3470.

Summing up, out-of-the-box support would come in next releases of Fedora (17), Ubuntu and other "bleeding edge" distros RSN. And you can even do it now.

Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to one external link on
AMD Hybrid Graphics. Please take a moment to review
my edit. If necessary, add {{
cbignore}}
after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{
nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}}
to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:
When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true to let others know.
