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?....

QUOTE(OC4/3 @ Apr 1 2008, 03:27 AM) Your single card is a little low but nothing out of ordinary.Overclock your processor,3dmark is heavily base on processor .Try to increase to 3.4ghz,should be 13k or so with single card and 19k with dual card.  yup, that's why i'm still not satisfy with it... will try oc my proc to see it will improve the performance... 3dmark06 need hotfix ? cos some other forums say that hotfix will tend to bring up better results or flash the MB bios?  QUOTE(rlhc17 @ Apr 1 2008, 04:51 AM) which version of catalyst driver u r using ? latest 8.3  , CCC still dun detect 2 cards, just only 1... even xfire is enabled... |

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(hypermax @ Apr 2 2008, 09:36 PM) 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? okie, will try enable overdrive and see whether the 2nd card will appear... err, 14k+ in 3dmark06 for CF is normal i guess cos i'm getting 14k as well... the problem is due to the proc try OC it abit u will see better results... |
