Very nice review, mascaras!

Could you, please, tell us if there is any micro stuttering when running in Crossfire mode? I know you already told us earlier that in Crysis there are some lock-ups, but what i refer to is this.

Cheers!

beside Crysis , all games i tested i didn't noticed much mico-stutering ! (at leat not too noticeble)

great thread. i heard GRID didn't scale well with CrossFire. did you rename the .exe or force AFR through CCC? or did it just scale well out of the box?

you´re right , i started testing single card today , and guess what???

1920x1200 AA x2 ultra settings = almost same Fps as CF (70/95)

so i guess the game dont scale well @ Multi GPU (same hapens with GX2 and SLi) , however the good new is that single hd4850 can run the game @ 1920x and AA with very good FPS


im uploading the SS



edit: added Race Grid @ single card

added COD4 singleplayer @ single card


added 3dmark vantage Performance test @ Single card

Did you notice any gain? can you post a comparision?

the first part of review was hd4850 Crossfire with CAT 8.5 , the only single card test i done @ 1st part of review was the crysis but i also tested today with Cat 8.6 and same thing (also in CF no gains)


i only started 2nd part review today @ testing single card in Games but already with cat 8.6 ( i didnt test singl card in games with cat 8.5 before, so i cant compare )
