nice system u got there
gameplay is awesome... Crysis runs great, Lost Planet is running 120 FPS everything maxed
3DM06 scaling is terrible

with this same overclock, I get 20100 with one card.
again, gameplay is amazing and thats what these are all about, but I have to admit I hope for better benchmarking performance with future driver updates
looks like 3d06 is only using one of your 9800gx2's off that score using 2 of the cards the hdr score would be much higher, good setup you have there its just a shame with all these new video cards they don't work as they should right out of the box and that you have to wait for new drivers to rectify it
thats what I thought too after my first 06 run... thats why I went into some games. In game my FPS are up in every game (by considerable margin in some) so I know its working
I think :shrug:
try 3dmark 03 if its working you shoulg get a good score as it a really gpu bound benchmark , try it and let us know, should be well over 100k if its working
ps i have a mountain mods u2 ufo which i have had 5 years still like it now still
Can you please run 06 with 1920x1200 resolution (or 1680x1050) and 8AA and 16AF. Driver settings quality.
I need to know how much GPU power there is :)
quad @ 4.5 - don't think we're looking at a cpu bottleneck, huh?

anyway, found the new GPU-Z which acurately reports SLi in Vista :)
that's more like it!Quote:

110k in 3D03...
quad sli is working :)

3DM06 - 1920x1200, 8xAA, 16xAF

Thanks! Those are great numbers
And last but not least, here's a quick Crysis bench:
it hiccupped a couple of time dropping to 5 FPS which ruined the AVG FPS... guess theres bound to be some driver bugs to iron out

done with benching for the day... time to go play some games :D
very nice sonofander especially 03 :eek: might as well try 3d05 and 01 now you've wetted our appetite
Really nice setup you have there, and that 1900x1200 06 run is awsome!!!
Trying different drivers for quad now, my 2k6 SM2 score is way off with .53 and trying .60 now but... my 03 score is the the same as yours at the same GPU clocks.
Nice!
Here is my CFX (2x 3870X2 @ 918/1100, CPU @ 4GHz) score, just for comparison. Quite similar I see.

Thanks guys :)
working on 05 and then 01 right now
Any other requests?
I bet it'd be amazing! Those ATI cards sure do shine in 3D mark... Too bad they're not so great in real life gameplay. My buddy's got a pair of 3870x2s and he is so dissapointed in their gameplay performance :(
As was I, it was like a stepping back to an X850 from the Ultra.Quote:

I play games. Became obvious there was serious problems and that the drivers were heavily optimized for 3Dmark and nothing else.
......OR maybe NVIDIA "optimisies" their drivers for games (if you take a look into Registry in the NVIDIA VGA - it has 3DMarks AND A LOT of games... ) ;) :p:
