Why don't you post the source with it? :confused: Come on! :yepp:
Maybe cuz he is the source? and he found that on the AMD website?
thats the ati dev/oem beta test driver site from the looks of it, so he would 1 not be able to link it since it requires log in and 2 would get in trouble and fined for breaking the NDA and his account taken if he did have oneQuote:

I would love to see the results. Any idea how long it usually takes to go from the developer site to the mainstream?
look for them in 8.3 is whats going around
anyone wanna guess if crysis is now playable with AA?
Probably not, ATI cards have always sucked it up in Crysis. remember the Nv splash screen?
u dont need aa with ati cards unless ur doing something wrong, and its hard to get a game that was made for the g80 and duel 128 shaders to run on a slow shader card with more shaders, its kinda like trieing to out torq an american v8 with a blower when u have a v16 out of italy and have to hit the high rpmsQuote:

for me , before release a Quad Xfire driver its more important have a decent driver for HD3870x2 !
Just hope they wont release a driver with Quad Xfire suport good in 3dmark (only for ppl see Quad Xfire working ) and then still SUKS in many games with single HD3870X2 and HD3870X2 CF .....................
regards
Especially ATI's, since Crysis is made for Nvidia cards. :pQuote:

Thanks for posting, Crazypinoy9! :welcome:
Just tried the driver with both 2900XT's and 3870's in Xfire. No performance differences. Plus I just noticed that this driver is based off of 8.451.2.
I got 8.453 RC Final that I haven't tried yet so maybe if there's any performance increases then I'll post some results. But I'm not keeping my hopes up high.
anyone know where to get that beta driver 8.451 released on 24th???
regards
hmmmm 2 x 3870x2's interesting...

thats what i said , that Quad Xfire driver 8.451.2 release today (30th) its probably the same driver beta (8.451.2) released in AMD FTP 5 days ago ( 24Th ) (acording to few reviews solved the BiG Bugs but still very bad in games) , but now they added Quad Xfire HD3870X2 suport ......................
I just start testing the card when a decent driver release , i think makes no sense test/analyse this card with a bad driver , if they dont release a better driver i prefer send back the cad for other else test it ...............

Hope to see some public releases soon, the quad driver could and will be very important to ATi / AMD if they wanne make a hit of there future multi-gpu cards.
Need this soon.
so... we'll see the X2 quad driver, sometime around the end of its lifetime...Quote:

People that bought X2's knew they could not use them in QuadFire as drivers because they where coming soon after they go on sale. If the people that bought them felt like AMD is taking the piss by doing this and releasing an not fully supported product they should have just have cancelled their orders, or not made any one to begin with. The only voice a company hears is one that has famous peoples faces printed on it, anything else is irrelevant.Quote:

Quad Crossfire hasnt been officially supported yet at all, so one card running stock, in regular crossfire will do just as it is supposed to. No scam from amd.
I need to get some quadfire drivers :)
Me 2
Gotta have inside connections at this point or no quadfire for you.Quote:

Are there any benches for quad Xfire?
Quad supported on anything other than 790FX?:stick:
On CrossFireX systems like P45 and X48, dunno about the 3-series, haven't seen any CFX-logos on those MB-boxes.Quote:

i think you will just need two x16 PCIe slots to have them run properly. So technically any mobo that meets that will be fine.Quote:

As of right now the only chipsets that support crossfireX are: 790FX, X38 and X48.Quote:

So you have 2 3870 X2's or is that 4 3870 X2's ? Please tell me it's 4 (meaning 8 GPUs) because I would definitely jump to the ATI boat.
thats 2 3870 X2's, so 4 GPUs total.Quote:

They OC per card, both cores are OCd the same time in overdrive.Quote:
