Vga's were running on ASUS P5E3 WS
NICE :clap:
only 249p to 06 wr :D , these x2s will rock. Very nice start guys :up:
Impressive guys, looking forward to some "real" results ;)
woah, nice scores, these X2's are monsters!
tasty tasty :D
Rip it up guys :up:
man push it just a tad higher and take that 06 WR NOW!
Nice start, good to see some strong numbers.
Good numbers but can surely be better :D You WILL get the 3DMark06 WR if you can push the FSB a bit higher, preferably at PL6. What board are you using? Also will you show us some Vantage? :)
Thanks manQuote:

I'm not fully satisfied about the results, we didn't have no more time\energy to use some 8600 for 01\03\05.
For that test we used ASUS P5E64 WS Professional, just because we know this mobo really well.
We'll swap soon to Rampage Extreme .
About Vantage, you'll see some numbers by the end of the week, we had a strange issue with CALICO, always crashed ( even @ 3.6 gg) .... I'm investigating ;)
we're getting closer to a fullhd gaming with filters.....(crysis)
consoles beware the pc is coming back !!!
Yeah, I know ofc. Just some suggestion on how to improve, scores are already good :) Get some sleep and try again, that should improve things a lot :DQuote:

Impressive Giorgio!
The drivers are a pain-in-the-ass at the moment (at least, that's what I heard going around) and you really, really need a damn fast cpu to get the X2's unleach all power. Since you've dealt with all those problems, you should be proud you still managed to only miss the WR by such little margin. Good luck on your next try!
:rofl::up::ROTF::clap:Quote:

Guys, tell me, is HD4870x2 is the best of the best ?
Yes 4870X2 is shaping up to be the premium card
Im interested in buying two of these, from benchies, some of the benchies seem to have great scaling and some seem to not even work and give negative performance...
Judging from this it seems its working nicely!
Can you by any chance get your qx9650 to 4.2 and see what the 3dmark score is :) LOL!
yummy!
I know what you want to tell...Is very hard Play with 4870X2 now:D...But if you find the right time are really powerful cardsQuote:

Congrats guys to job well done! :-)
miam miam.... cant wait to test such a 4870X2 for my own... this is a Killercard...
Awesome job. I can't wait to see what they can do with some more voltage.
that is awesome ! I was going to say why not bench with XP for more points, but your using 4 gpus, not 2 ! doh
I get mine tomorrow, I can't wait. Still on air at the momentm waiting for LittleDevil to build my phase !
Sooo close to the WR, and you are only benching these goddesses on air, without even pushing hard the QX ... Incredible, just incredible :eek: Congrats guys, hope you crush both WRs in your next session :up: Now you should get some sleep though :p:
I don't even want to think about 3D 03 score, once you put these cards under LN2, and ofc using a nice E8600 :eek2:
:D On 3d03 this card is greatQuote:

Very nice work Gio!:up:
Giorgio... is the CPU @ 5.6GHz? I cant see the numbers clearly.
Keep pushing!! The other guys will start rolling in scores soon ;) :D
Nice start.
thanks guys,
CPU was 6.16 for 06 and 6.25 for 03 .
Can do better, prob., weas that this time we didn't use Vince Pot ....( too long to explain....)
Got som problem with driver to make crossfireX works and even to clock the cards, but it is just because the drivers are a kind of "sample", I'm sure there will be no more issue with the 1st official release :)
maybe those dual 4870x2 oc'ed will be able to play NWN2 at max settings lol. that game engine is crap! I get 0.9 fps at maximum settings with my 3850 760/1000... 1280x1024!!!!! :shrug:
that's the reason why I use hardware just to bench..LOLQuote:

when you say "patch" is that an OS patch if so what patch
thanks
Great work my friends
:up:
awesome work! cant wait to until they are unleashed with volts and cold!
nice start guys ;)
true, but no reviews run NWN2, such a beautiful game, ruined by such an ugly engine...Quote:

and you do a really good job man! :up:
cant wait for the voltmods and test under ln2
what about 2x HD4870X2 in skulltrail? :)
amazing score Gio! as I see now you are on 24" display ;)
that would mean total PWNAGE!Quote:

Come on...you can do it!!! :up:
Nice results indeed, had a brief encounter with teh X2 myself, just didnt have a quad laying around for it :yepp:

:banana::banana::banana::banana:.
do 8.7 cats support these cards or need to use the driver off cdrom that comes with the cards?
if a downloadable beta driver do you have a link xp/vista versions
and finally amd oc tool does it work and if so vista/xp or just vista or stuck atm with CCC only?
thanks guys awsome results and sorry for the questions
Clint
Nice results. :up: It seems like triple SLi is still better for all Vantage presets though.
8.7 doesn't work, you need to use the driver on the CD, but i think they will be released soon.Quote:

AMD gpu tool works n Xp and in VISTA but just with single card. Not works in crossfireX
you are welcome ....

here I am here after two days of deserved rest :D
these vga's go very fast but I think that in vantage run's triple 280gtx are a little faster.....we will see with the official drivers release :)
tnx for all guy's
That's also considering the use of a THREE gpu setup when a single one of those gpu's is already on par with and sometimes faster then a single 4870 gpu. In my opinion ATI/AMD have a real winner with the 4870x2...the size is earily reminiscent of the Voodoo 5 6000 (plus some) but what matters is performance, and they seem to be right on track.Quote:

go do xtreme and say thatQuote:

Please note that this result does not comply with the rules defined in the Driver Approval Policy for 3DMark Vantage and will not be visible on default result search on the ORB or on the Hall of Fame. Please ensure that you are using approved display drivers and system software versions provided with 3DMark Vantage or use the "Disable PPU" option.
Do it again without PPU on GPU and you can come back and compare with Giorgioprimo :up:
Hmm...strange...I can only see 2 cards in the first pic...:rolleyes:Quote:

That sound like :
I make 20k 2006 with 8 core Xoen and single 8800gt..and you have lower score with Cel430 and GTX280 3-SLi.... => 8800gt is 3times more powerful than GTX280 .... period
In the other thread you are quoting one of the best benchers in the world i see, you are benching 3dmark with "Feature Tests" :rofl:
Nice scores Georgio ;)
Wow. It wouldn't matter if you scored 357xx in vantage. Crapping an Xtreme Legend's thread with that bs will never get you XIP. This is not about ATI vs Nvidia. Giorgio has proven himself on GTX 280 cards as well here: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=197001 .Quote:

Also, we need 6Ghz 3D :D
Perkam
i think that in xtreme and high 4870x2 will be beter than 280gtx, but for entry and performance 280are the cards to use ...just my tough, need to test more.Quote:

6gg in 06-05-03-01 will show pretty soon, well i hope more than 6gg, becuase 6gg compared to the master k|ngp|n gonna be crap ;)
I was not crapping on his thread or his talents to OC I was just stating iam not impressed as yall are with these cards...Nothing to do with the OP...And sorry if it was taken that way....But I will say it again..Iam not impressed...
Awesome results giorgioprimo. And don't mind the haters, your efforts are obviously 100% unbiased and that's all we need!
Base on an "physX inflated Vantage score" you're not impressed :rolleyes:Quote:

Oh and the inflated physex scores...Well what would you say if the shoe was on the other foot...
well umm i would disable physx DUHQuote:

hiya giorgio got 2 x 4870x2's couple of questions have you uploaded any scores on the orb i have and although i can upload them and all the details are there , i can't publish the compare link and where the name of the card is on orb it say generic vga, also what have you done to get past cccs core limit of 800, flashed the bios or some other overclocking tool to over clock in quad quadfire
thanks a lot
Glen

To pass the ccc limit you need to flash the cards
Yeah Im not trying to hate on the thread or in any way any offense to the OP but GMOD if your not impressed with these vantage scores, fine thats ok- But if your not impressed with there Gameply scores in game, then well somethings wrong... LOL
thanks giorgio i thought so , did you use atiflash if you have 2 cards in whats the card id number is it 0 for master 1 for slave 2 for master on second card and 3 for slave on second card, thanks again
nice start there giorgio! is that for GC next week?
03 is great with these cards :up:

regards
But u also gotta have sweet cpu behind the cards Kinc uh?
Nice start, Brother :clap:
And this time I've tried with 4870x2 CFX same you ,,,,
Thanks for good sharing. :)
Well if they want the score to be higher, they could always get an agia card right?
nice start memory :up:
nice results. Hopefully have crossfire sorted next week :)
M8 I think that score 3d03 was low bugged
