Great cards, great review - like always^^.
BTW, 723W loaded on a 750W PSU, how stable was that? Were those cards overclocked pulling this wattage? If not, will they oc at all? That's things I am wondering about... :shrug:

Why no quad CF 3dm 2006 scores? I get 19K with my 3870x2 so expected a much higher 3md06 even for a single 4870x2. My guess is your CPU limited and would get about the same score as a single 4870x2.

Hi

are you using Windows Vista 64bit with 3dmark 2006 or windows XP ??? (all testes in the review @ windows Vista Ultimate 64bit)

i cant test 2k6 quad crossfire because i dont have the cards anymore , the review was made few months ago ( 30-9-2008 @ Catalyst 8.9 that time ) , but i only remember to post the review here in XS today ! :p:

yep , the old TX750 was able to handle quad-crossfire :p: ( although i recommend a Good +1000W PSU , of course )

I already saw in a review that TX750 in fact "can deliver" around 900Watt ( I dont remember what review )


this cards are already factory overclocked !
