5800 series hmmmmmm........

Arcmanov · « **Reply #362 on:** December 28, 2009, 11:12:31 PM »

Yep...

Sapphire Radeon HD5850 to be exact.

Critics say: '...it badd.'

Can you say: 'Crysis @ 1680 x 1050, all settings on 'Very High', and 2 x AA' three times fast. I can't, but so what, when I'm
getting 55-60+ fps. Doh talk for when AA is turned off. We talkin fps numbers in the 70s.

...and I cannot describe to you (in words) just how pretty DiRT 2 looks in full DX11 mode...

Those are actual sceenies I made with FRAPs.

Yeah..'Ultra' settings...and 8 x AA...and it runs at an absolutely dreamy 60+ fps.
Where the HD4870X2 would actually be struggling...these babies are singin.

Man...I cannot WAIT to see the DX11 effects in Battlefield: Bad Company 2.

Hot tip, Arc. You've actually plugged in your second card in the electrical x4, x16 slot.

The lowest x16 slot is the 2nd electrical x16 slot. Put it there and you'll get way higher numbers.

Hot tip, Arc. You've actually plugged in your second card in the electrical x4, x16 slot.

The lowest x16 slot is the 2nd electrical x16 slot. Put it there and you'll get way higher numbers.

Tried it, but now I'm sure I had it right the first time.

Performance dropped by half almost across the board, especially in DiRT 2 where the max achievable fps dropped to 35.

Of course, you KNOW I had to put the 2nd card right back in that 2nd slot....and confirmed via another quick race that
the performance is back where it should be. Right at that 60 fps mark.

Cap, all the reviews say that 2nd slot is the proper X16 slot for CrossfireX.

It was good to test out the theory though.

Spazosaurus · « **Reply #378 on:** December 31, 2009, 06:51:15 AM »

Wow, same exact board, very different results.

Im stumped. Not too sure that to make of that.

Nephilim · « **Reply #379 on:** December 31, 2009, 08:58:18 AM »

same board, diff revision maybe?
