#1 Crossfire may be the problem here
#2 same exact settings, resolution and freshly installed OSes?
Basicly i could see full well the P4 couldnt run the crossfired HD4870's. Running almost anything 3D the cpu load was almost maxed out & i could almost count each frame it was so slow.
Ye the crossfire was a big prob for the old P4 when i took the tick out crossfire in ccc the framerates in 3D stuff jumped up quite alot.
