First test with 2900XT Crossfire in 3DMark 05. Cards are on stock cooler doing only 880/990MHz, 35k should be doable with more gfx power.

dam this is a nice score, cant w8 until u break 35k
wow...2900 is realy showing some power there...and on stock coolers:toast:
IMPRESSIVE SCORE KINC! :up:
One could wonder what it would be on 2x16x PCIe board and cards under some cold...:shocked:
Kinc you crazy bastard... Keep it up. :)
I wanna see 35 ;)
I know you can do it, if you won't I'm certain elmor will ;)

nice
compare to top of 2005 orb
8800gts sli 30045 3dmarks
8800 gtx sli 32966 3dmarks
8800 ultra sli 33605 3dmarks
the latest drivers (7.6) should give it a boost =)
7.6 is all bug fixes as far as I know, wich is needed since there are a few big ones :D Atleast no updates for 3DMark. I would like to see a update for crossfire in 3DMark 01.Quote:

Need agree with you.. only around 100pnts more in 3D06, 3D03 decrease a little bit... i have not test in 3D05 yet.. but i think it should be same thing as in ' 06..Quote:

don't worry there is always 7.7 etc. lol
awesome scores as always kinc. no doubt they will go much higher soon.
anyone else getting stuttering in 05 firefly test? costs me a bunch of frames right as it starts it is 145 then stumbles drops to abot 40 and back up to 100 plus. i wind up with 1000 frames in first 10 sec. but occasionally i get 1350 in first 10 seconds with no stutter but it isn't repeatable?
also in cpu test trolls lair frames drop to single digit when trolls are on screen but i get awesome framerate when they arent.
so i think there is some major improvements coming in future drivers.
yes... in Firefly 05-06, and GT3 for 3D05... a big stutter folowed by a big lost of fps... strangely at this point of the bench, the fps should be same.
I have the same problem. I have a fealing it decreases with higher PCI-E clocks, but it is so random that it is hard to know. Also LOD set to 15 seems to help against these slow downs.
I have the same stuttering. Default and increased PCI-E levels. So far it doesn't seem to be hampering scores significantly.
Nice to know... need say i have not try LOD... i wait a new PSU, mine is dead. Can't bench with the one i use with high CPU speed + GPU..Quote:

Finally over 25k with 2900XT Crossfire :)

Very nice result Marcus! :D
Is that the max the cards can run or is there some headroom left? The CPU is a great clocker for a QX6700. Even a Q6850 could not be that much better.

A good QX6850 for Blitz Formula SE or Blitz Extreme (with micron chips) would be the best. Blitz is really tight, the performence is quite alot better than 975X boards.
Nice job Kinc and Elmor, I can't wait to see what you can do with the new gpu pots.
Congrats Kinc! I'm even more anxious now to try '06. :D
say kinc and gautam what are u useing for cf OC'ing ?
Congratz guys!
As always amazing job :up:
PS. Is that run on Cat7.7? And what operating system is now best for CF actions??
Great :toast: ... as always ;)
//Andreas
Clocks via bios. Voltage by the vmods shamino explained in his R600 review. Still waiting for new catalysts to fix the CF oc problem. If there were a way to disable the 2d to 3d switching like with R580 it would be posible to use the latest atitool for overclocking cf.Quote:
