Looking forward to some real 3850 CF numbers:D
like quake wars? unfortunately, i would have to say no..
any one tried that new tri fire aka crossfire -x or quad fire???
which motherboard should i get for quad/tri fire + good Yorkfield oc.. say 500fsb
cuz Q9450 (or is it 9550) the one with 8x multi costs $316 only has 8x multi = need 500fsb for 4GHz ... or maybe i should just get Wolfdale E8500 and hopefully get 4.5GHz ... on water, b/c more boards oc dual well than quads..
i mean no many games support quad core ... Crysis suppose to support it, but my CPU usage never exceed 50% .. i mean NEVER, and UT 3 does support quads, but again CPU usage = 55% max.... no higher.... hmm shoulda get higher clock dual core that might actually get me higher fps
ahh ill post it in intel section
Yup, because compatible AFR does not work there if I remember correctly.Quote:

Is Catalyst AI set to standard?
Hello I have a question. Today I becam my His 3870, it run with 900/1300 on water. My old 2900pro run with 920/1000mhz. I test my new card with 3dmark2006 but I have only 12800 points. With my 2900pro I have 13800 points. Is the pro faster as the 3870 on 3dmark2006? Or its a driverproblem?
The other config is the same :(
CF wasnt working proply because AI wasnt standard , look now
HD3850 256mb DEFAULT

Yep crossfire needs AI to standard or advanced to run properly.
Hey, run 3d06 again but use AI advance
Its slower than Standard....Quote:

What drivers are you using, the 3870 should be faster...Quote:
