Don't.. ever.. do.. Crossfire.. on.. P35s..


Anyway, just take off your second 4850 (the one in the 4x slot) and you'll see that a single 4850 beats your "old" G92 GTS.

And don't worry about the temps, these new GPUs are ready for that (8800GTs used to do 105º with the old cooler). The lockups aren't temperature-related, that's for sure.
My intention was to keep these in crossfire until I could complete a stepup to a GTX 260 and then return them. Unfortunately, they do not run stable on my rig and they are going back sooner than expected. Yes, I was an idiot for not researching the crossfire performance on the P35, but I knew I was going to return the cards. I never really had any intention on keeping these for longer than a month. A part of me was hoping the crossfire performance would awe me to death and that I might sell my GTS and keep the 4850s. 4850s no go for me. GTX 260 stepup here I come....
