    HD2900GT CF + QX6700 air ( 3DBench )

    I'm tried SAPPHIRE HD2900GT CrossFire ( Default Speed ) with QX6700@ ~3.6GHz on-air.

    But regrettable, I can't overclock my HD2900GT CrossFire.

    - QX6700 @ ~3.6GHz with Scythe Andy Samurai Master
    - Asus P5W64 WS Pro ( V,core , V,mch )
    - Corsair CM2X 1024 *2 @ 493MHz [4-4-4-5]
    - Sapphire HD2900GT 256M CrossFire
    - SilverStone ST850.


    Thanks XS,

    How cheap are those cards anyways? Not a bad score.

    X800PRO 256MB - X800XT:PE 256MB - X1800XL 256MB - X1900XT 512MB - HD2900XT 512MB

    So you can't overclock the GT's in crossfire?
    That has probably something to do with the recognition of the name.
    You could try to load an other driver, and select the 2900xt. It probably works. I did this trick with my x1900gt, and used the x1950pro driver. What tools did u use to try to overclock?

    500Watt may not be enough, probably borderline...

    He is using the drivers from the cd that came with the cards. I'm still waiting to. They have change the date 3 times now. But before they change it last time. They told me that it was supported, there just full of themselves. I really do doubt, that they will release crossfire drivers for this card. But will see i guess.
