Yes, and it's internal, like the X1950 Pro ^_^

Any motherboard that has 2 pci-e slots.

And supports CrossFire :P 

All of the dual PCI-E P35 mobos support crossfire (well, all the ones on the UK anyways...) And a lot of people have said that P35 boards are good, I've not had any experience with them though...

Well yeah, but some use SLI, some use CrossFire, they're not compatible (well I think there are some BIOS tweaks for a couple, but don't go there -.-")

I got an ASUS board that supports Xfire, I forget the model -- M2N-MVP I think? The 2900XT is an enormous card. On the ASUS board, it actually gets in the way of the SATA connectors on the lower PCIe slot. You're also going to need 4 (Two 2x3 and two 2x4) power leads from the PSU.
