It only works with the second card connected via pci so you would need a pci to pcie adapter or a pci version of the Radeon HD Card
the video card bandwidth is also slower connected this way so the some of the benefits are negated.
Also AmigaOS 4.1 crashes with an second Radeon HD card connected on the X5000.

Thanks for your kind responses and I have been looking through the support forums for other hints and tips, looks like i may have to dig out the old Radeon HD 5450 from my old Sam 460 board to solve the problem here. I am guessing I can have two video cards running off the X5000 motherboard. I am guessing that there would need to be some set up to ensure that Linux is picking up the 5450 and not the 7750??

Running Linux on AmigaONEs can require some tinkering.
