Banshee---> if u run at XP, try uninstall them and use driver cleaner pro also. Then install 8.3, followed by hotfix 8.3..now it should be read as 8.4

He cant/shouldnt be running XP as CFX wil only work in Vista with either cat8.3 or the hotfix version.
25k in 05 seems about right for 1 stock X2 and approx 4ghz on E8400.
he tries to run 3870 in CF (dual)not X2 in CF, and indeed a quad gpu wont work in XP since it wont allowed 3 frames ahead rendering
Hey all. I just got a second 3870x2 that I installed on my DFI X38 mobo. With one card installed I got between 13300 and 13400 3DMarks. With the second card my score only went up by about 500 points.
Is there any way I can make sure both cards are working? I ran the Shader Mark test with both cards in and got around 1275 fps. Under "Details" in 3DM06 under "System" I saw this:
Unfortunately, I never noticed if it was on for one cards, but IIRC it was on for dual 2900XT's.Quote:

Run 3D03, the difference wil be noticable :)
i second what loco says , in 3d03 there will be a massive difference but in 06 the big difference is only apparent when you up the resolutionto say 1920 x 1200
OK, I ran 3DM06 for kicks. Last time I ran it was with my old system that included two 2900XT's, and I got around 60K. New score with two 3870X2's is 73K.
I'm working on the CPU OC now...
