Hi everybody. Im having a seriuos issue here. I recently build a new system and im very dissapointed with the performance for now.
My machine specs
Amd phenom 9500
Thermal take thoughpower 850 PSU
2 x HD3870 Diamond ati in crossfire mode.
8 Gb ram corsair dominator 1066 mhz
4 samsung 320 gb 7200 RPM hard drives in RAID 1+0
2 samsung 320 gb 7200 RPM hard drives in RAID in JOBD
MSI k9a2 Platinum mother board
Windows vista 64 with all the updates including SP1
I update today to catalyst 8.5 drivers. Then i run everything on this article http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?t=51219
Ok. My 3dmark06 FPS rate in the decepticon scene is only 29 FPS. I think its too low for 2 3870 cards. I asume this can be because 3dmark06 are not detecting my CF configuration, so i run crisys benchmarking in vista and get a terrible 12 FPS results in 800x600 resolution all game settings in HIGH.
Something is not working here. i will appreciate any help on debugging this issue.
1.- How can i be completely sure that my crossfire configuration is working propperly?
2.- How can i activate crossfire to be used for crisys?
