nice scores, but sucks ati cannot compete in real gaming tests.
impressive numbers there , can one use a sli bridge for cf ?or is it still with the dongle? does cf run on striker ? or just 975 boards . does one get an adapter for the 8 pin molex in the retail verstions ? or do we need to change psu again . i heard one cant get overdrive to work ,if you dont have the 8 pin set on.
A new version of Crossfire was introduced with the x1950 Pro I believe. It usesQuote:

AFAIK, CF does not work on nVidia chipset boards.

2.- Striker no CF, because has 680i chipset
3.- 975 Boards, 965p boards, rd600 boards can use CF
4.- I think I saw an 6 to 8 pin adapter in coolaler forums for the GPU, so, probably no change for PSU
5.- Where do you hear that?
great to see Kinc back and posting :toast:
looks great so far :D >> we want to see LN2 and where the cold bug is on them :) heh
Yes you need the 8-Pin for Overdrive to function or be activated more like it but its not nessisary if you wish to use 3rd Party clocking tools.Quote:

Good old P5W DH as testing platform :)
Good to know. So basically you don't need the 8-pin connector ifQuote:

What's the power consumption level of this card compared to the

No but you can still overklock with 2 6-pin connectors too. And it's about 30W more then a GTX at load @ stock.Quote:

CPU on air @ 3700MHz

I'd say its time to design a more efficient pot ;)Quote:

time to see some liquid helium action xD
I'd say get some rev. 4 copper mouspots:DQuote:
