Microstuttering is gone on R700!

[FelipeV]

Good news! I can confirm that based on my own tests microstuttering is gone on R700!

I've tested with R700 (ATI Radeon HD 4870 X2) and R680 (ATI Radeon HD 3870 X2) in Crysis (1600x1200 and High settings). I used Fraps and enabled Frametimes logging. I recorded 2 seconds from exactly the same point in game (loaded from save game). Based on my recorded data, with ATI Radeon HD 3870 X2 frames are rendered after ~21,5 and every other frame after ~49,5 ms. With ATI Radeon HD 4870 X2 all framres are rendered after ~ 21,9 ms.

More coming soon, now I have to go and attend beachsoccer tournament!

Good news for the ones waiting for the new X2.

It only debunks the Fud that was implied about the X2 to begin with. Micro-stuttering was never a serious issue until the rumored results of the 4870 surfaced. When rumors about a X2 surfaced did threads pop up about micro-stuttering. At that time I thought it was an honest observation. However, as I began to do my own little investigation did I find out that there were many factors that can cause micro-stuttering and, it's not specific to dual GPUs. That's when it became clear to me that this was just an attempt at FUD.
