QUOTE(irenic @ Mar 22 2008, 09:18 AM) i just wonder 2x 3870 CF or 3870x2 is better? older batch of d x2 used 8x link, so if cf 3870 on both x16 lane boards, theoretically d latter should be faster imo. |

QUOTE(irenic @ Mar 22 2008, 09:48 AM) ic.. that means currently 3870cf @ 2x 8x pci-e lanes has same performance wih 3870x2.. most of d review doesn't compared clock to clock, so they mite be bias. do note that there are diff in core clock & mem speed for both, some more 3870cf is of dd4, d x2 uses ddr3 only. unless there are users with both 3870 x2 and 2 x 3870 do comparison clock to clock w/ same bandwidth as well (cf @ 8x), else it's kinda hard to judge which is faster. but 3870x2 has advantage if user wanna go more than dual core .. cfx. |

QUOTE(§layerXT @ May 27 2008, 03:55 PM) That's why better get 2x pcie slots for recovery, PCI cards very xpensive. not necessarily u must get a brand new one mah...  a cf / sli board not d cup of tea for everyone. |

QUOTE(§layerXT @ May 27 2008, 07:10 PM) Not really cf/sli board la, Got P35 chipset got 2x pcie "16x" what. isn't it if a board comes with 2 pcie (long type which meant for gfx) port that mean d board is a cf / sli board? |
