Does STO Support SLI/Crossfire?

I'm not sure if I ever saw this anywhere so I’m going to ask; does STO support SLI or Crossfire configurations?

If anyone is running SLI on their system what kind of gain have you seen or not seen over running with SLI off?

    SLI does work in this game...only mode I run my games on. I currently have two GTS 240's in SLI and they work fine.

    2x8800 GTS 512's in SLi run the game quite well at max settings. :)

    I'm not really sure if it makes much difference if the game supports it or not...I have Crossfire and it works - it just works - because it doesn't rely on the game to create a profile for it. That being said, however, I STILL cannot do ground missions because they cause the computer to crash. Whatever the coding is which is different from the ground missions to the space missions has a fatal bug in it that wrecks the video.

    Wait, you need SLI to run STO? Even my laptop runs STO at medium graphics with no lag. I would think anything above a 8800 should run STO at max? I guess though if you were just wondering if it worked in SLI/CF for the sake of... working then nvm.

    Perhaps I could just be firing some confusion, but if you have a decent graphics card and the game is running poorly your drivers may be an issue, or your Processor/Memory is bottlenecking the cards true speeds.

    correct incorrectlogin :)

    SLI/Xfire is waste of money for STO

    Edit: actually it's waste of money for everything :p
