QUOTE(Silverfire @ Apr 1 2008, 06:12 PM) From 3DMark06* benching, I found out ATI cards always had higher SM3.0/HDR scores than NVIDIA cards. that's an improve of your 3dmark06 in 8.2 is it? cos your 8.3 driver slightly reduce the result... i will try mine on 8.2 now to see the 2 gc can be seen in CCC or not

QUOTE(butthead012 @ Apr 1 2008, 02:42 AM) My 2 MSI hd3870 in CF only get 13k++, while my single card 3dmark06 already 11k++, with all default and stock settings... other hardwares are in my siggy... just want to know what's wrong with the low score... or is it normal? I'm trying to get CCC to detect the second GC but it doesn't and it only detects one of the GC... wonder what's wrong with it... GPUz showing that i'm xfire enabled and CCC also xfier enabled... hmmmm?.... Same problem here. Have reformatted my comp and now downloading catalyst 8.2. Hopefully can get better result.

After installing catalyst 8.2, hd3870 CF scored 14000++ on 3dmark 2006. All my system stock. Is it good or bad? Using X38 mobo.

Currently I am using a single slot Sapphire HD3870, and i notice that my fan speed doesn't go down even when on idle. Is this a normal behavior with this card? Do I have flash with the infamous fan fix bios? My current BIOS is 010.078. This post has been edited by kurogane: Apr 2 2008, 03:02 AM

My current BIOS is 010.078.  on GPU-Z...thick the box..."continue refreshing this screen bla bla bla"...try to see go different or not...or monitor it using rivatuner...if same... then try run atitool with 3d View...as the core temperature going up...see the fan going faster or not...vice-versa...close the 3D View...the core temperature going down...the fan speed decrease or not...

well i dun think the gigabyte card is bad oc card, coz so far i've seen most of 3870 has equal oc's ability..
maybe bcoz gigabyte is a latecomer?

Try to enable overdrive. Once overdrive is unlocked, you can see the second card's details. Btw, is getting 14000+ in 3dmark06 ok for HD3870 CF at stock system speed?
