i looked at it and its the same drivers you can get for physx/cuda.. just in a differnt place.

thanks though.... some day we will stumble upon the gem we are looking for.

my current debacle is the fact that 2 4870x2s dont want to run at all in crossfire. it's not a power issue. seems to be a driver issue.

Even with Catalyst 8.10 RC2?

That is sooo much a bummer. Thinking about selling one or waiting for drivers to mature?

What do you mean by this? I haven't had any trouble with mine. Could it be your mobo? I did have issues with the DFI X38-T2R and my 3870X2's.

tried different boards. it's not that they dont work at all. its the fact that i can get an OC 100% stable and it runs fine for days.... until i add the second 4870x2. then NOTHING is stable and everything is outta wack. i have to go back and totally reconfigure my entire OC and the board is still not stable. it's NOT the PSU. i have 2 pc power and cooling 860watts with video cards and cooling are on one and the mobo and hdds are on the other.

i tried different drivers and different OSes with no solution thus far. i can bench 5ghz with a single x2 but 4.6ghz is max and is not even stable with 2x2s.

Is it possible that Microsoft could release a Vista update which would allow two display drivers to be installed? Or is there no hope for this ever working on Vista? :(

4xxx crossfire is just messed up >.> An Intel rep was telling me to buy into Nvidia before the 280/48xx came out because: "Nvidia makes a solid design that produces very little signal noise." Are ATI's 48xx cards too "noisy" or is it just a lack of driver support (which I doubt because the problems wouldn't be so prominent in boot, etc)? :shadedshu This is making my head hurt.

Did you try majorly upping the chipset voltages. It's having to move a lot more data with 2 X2's in there. Might need more juice.

i took every single vista driver i threw at it.... it's actually alot better than vista... even in the alpha stages. expect beta 1 to be out in october.

anyone can go get it right now. go to www.isohunt.com and put this in the search box with the quote marks "windows 7" . there is one that has some green comment marks, thats the one i got.

How much ram does it take compared to Vista ?

NO... i highly doubt it. if you could see what they have done with windows 7, its apparent that they have completely given up on vista.

How much ram does it take compared to Vista ?

i use 2x1gb. works fine. 7 is A LOT faster than vista. i cant stress what i mean by A LOT enough. it's FAST as hell.

you may be right. i'll try a tad more. i've gone from the stock 1.2v all the way to 1.62v and it acts as though nothing is different. not even getting the feeling of any better stability at all.

IIRC my Maximus w/Rampage mod defaults to 1.65v. GIVE IT THE JUICE!!!!!! :rockout:
