breaking in the 4870x2. cant seem to get my 4870x2 and a 4870 to play well together yet.
trifire run upcoming after a fresh vista install.

[crazydiamond]

what drivers are you using? i think when i was messing w/ my 4870/4850 xfire 8.9 were treating me much better than 8.10... and btw, take your time gettin them to run in trifire ....... cuz my top 5 will be gone =) lol looking forward to see where you stand when you push them

[merkk1]

Man all you guys are pulling out the big guns .Where that dran Deneb cpu at when you need one .

Hmm try the 8.8beta 8-52-2(4870x2beta)...I found it faster than the 8.9official...my 3870x2 gained about 250points by using it . Its made for the 4870x2

[merkk1]

Grats on the 18021 score Equinox1 go team Foxconn !!

Quick update after installing Cat 8.11 not a huge increase but enough to get me level with lightman, exactly level to the point..LOL..!!!


3DMark Score 16323
SM 2.0 Score 6117
SM 3.0 Score 8400
CPU Score 4161

Compare URL: http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm06=8909532

Phenom 9950BE @ 3.1Ghz
HT @ 2400Mhz
NB @ 2400Mhz
RAM @ 1066Mhz

2 x 4850 @ 700/1150 - Catalyst 8.11

EDIT: Well thought I'd give it another go, being so close and all, and managed to just scrape ahead of Lightmans score.

All settings same as above, just re-ran test to check for variance and came up with:

3DMark Score: 16358
SM 2.0 Score: 6163
SM 3.0 Score: 8374

[Lightman]

Well just wait till I get Phenom II

Congratz on your score Kazgirl

[kazgirl]

Well just wait till I get Phenom II

Congratz on your score Kazgirl

HAha, I'll be right there with you on the Phenom II...LOL...

Thanks on the congratz, even though its only 35 points... and thats with 2 cards over one.

But mayeb I can increase the gapa bit once I get the M3A79-T and can push my 9950 a bit more with the help of SB750 and ACC.

Hopefully towards the end of the week.

Cheers

Hi HG,

Well looking at your compare, it seems pretty clear to me, that the main difference is in the CPU score with your CPU at 3.4GHz, over mine at 3.1Ghz, the graphics scores are pretty close, and I would have expected the 4850's to score better than the 3870's, though it depends on whether or not they are OC'd and by how much.

The OS being used is also most likely a factor, as mine is on 64-bit Vista, untweaked, no services disabled before running the bench etc.... whilst you are on 32-bit.

Having looked at other results on ORB with a similar config, incl. 64-bit Vista, I'm happy with the result I got.

I have all the BIOS settings configured correctly for the PCI-E etc, and the cards are in the correct slots, configured for PCI-E Gen 2.0 and Link Width x16, confirmed in CCC and GPU-Z.

The only other factor could be the PCI-E Bus, which is currently set at 100Mhz, I have got AutoExpress Enabled in BIOS, and this used to run the PCI-E Bus at 124Mhz, but for some reason it doesn't seem to do it any more, not since I flashed to the 1301 BIOS, and then went back to the 1203 BIOS after I had the USB problems with the 1301 BIOS.

The Phenom is OC'd to the most it will do on the SB600, via multi increase only, to 200Mhz x 15.5 = 3100Mhz, RAM is set at DDR2-1066 and is running as it should. NB Mulit is set to X12, as is HT Multi, though it only applies the HT Multi after opening AOD in Windows and changing it there.

So NB is at 2400Mhz, HT is at 2400Mhz.

Not sure what there could be thats wrong to be honest.

If you or anyone else has any ideas, I;d love to hear them, as if I can get a better score I'd love it..

The cards are OC'd to the Max using ATI Overdrive, and I don't really want to try to push them any higher as I'm using the stock fans and increasing the fanspeed any higher than it is (45%) makes them unbearably noisy.

I could try a higher OC on the cards and max the fanspeed just for a bench run, but when I tried this before I got all sorts of artifacting etc, I'd be much happier just finding a stable day to day setting and using that TBH....

Any and all suggestions would be welcome, though truthfully I'll be doing a complete re-build around the M3A79-T later this week, so I havn't got much time left to try things...!!!
