I forgot to mention I'm getting a Corsair 750tx next week. I have to get that before I can even try crossfire. I'll let you guys know how my new system runs in a week or so.

Well.....I had Tri-Fire 1GB 4870's are one point.....then went to Crossfire as I put one in my girlfriends rig.....then both of mine died in a horrible accident (too many mhz! LOL) so I got myself a cheap GX2.
All of my cards had FC blocks on them....I will try and get some pictures up later if I can find them, if not I'll take pictures of the dead cards.

Well, I have a measly 4830 crossfire in my I7 920 system. Can I join the club?
Would like to upgrade when prices drop. Seriously though, they work great and and have now problems with any game at 1920x1200. Currently playing Mass Effect 2 with 16x AF. |

its fixed apparently in rare cases if u alt tab from a steam game it will auto set all your games ini files to fullscreen = false so no matter what u do they never go fullscreen untill u change fullscreen= false to fullscreen = true eitherway its fixed but thats just just damn screwy

![]() ![]() Sorry for the quality, it was taken from my phone. The wire that is over the two cards is to the ATX, when I had it custom made, I had to rewire a lot of stuff to make it fit. I could've re-route it better, but I was too lazy ![]() Benchmarks O/C to 1000/1300 Am I doing it right?

I am quite surprised by my two HD5670s. I can run the Mechwarrior: Living Legends total conversion for Crysis at Very High settings at 1680x1050 with FPS around the 45-50 mark. Granted, the game itself has larger maps and view distances, so it bogs down to around 24-25 average fps at those settings, but I don't play Crysis - I shoot 'Mechs

Thanks Don.
And yeah, 2GB each. I would have probaly get the same performance with the cheaper 1GB versions. But hey, I wanted something special xD There arent that many people that can say they have 4GB vRAM in there computer and a whole lot less that can say they're single GPU cards

Yup, I can run GTAIV on Ultra High, all settings to max and still be in the green. To bad it doesnt support Crossfire. Crysis isnt much of a problem too, atleast if I keep AA to a minimum. Lets say 2x AA on Very High Dx10. I have yet to experience lag.
The only game that lags is Metro 2033, but I doubt thats my cards and it only does it in fire fights so I dunno. Idle Top card: 42c Bottom card: 49c Load (Furmark) Top card: 59c Bottom card: 65c |
