i read somewhere that the dual core gpu can only crossfire up to 2 cards only. other series u can crossfire up to 4.

maybe its only the driver issue that does not support this 4870x2 and 3870x2 in quad crossfire mode. is this true?

Because there is only one pin available at 4870x2/3870x2 for CrossFireX.

same goes to 9800GX2 cases.

DX10.1 is way better than DX10, DX10 sucks.

Anyway, DX11 is an enhancement of DX10.1, not DX10

AMD’s graphics division (ATI) today introduced the ninth update for its Catalyst driver software today. Version 8.9 includes a new display mode, Overdrive support four quad-Crossfire X configurations and works in concert with OpenGL 3 extensions.


Anyone with 4870X2 CFX tried overdrive ?

Alright, this may come as a surprise, but Crysis Warhead is set to use 256mb of Vram!!!!!! WTF was Crytek thinking!? I noticed this while I was doing performance checks and while my system ram usage and cpu usage was fine, I noticed my GPU being under utilized. So I went to tweakguides.com and looked through the various cvars trying to find anything noteworthy in regards to gpu's.


con_restricted=0
sys_budget_videomem = 512
r_TexturesStreaming=0



I made an autoexec.cfg with that and now I can run at 1440x900 and get as high as 60fps and never, ever go below 30fps on all gamer settings. Micro-stuttering (stuttering when turning) is virtually gone and the game is just running smooth as butter

Also, r_TexturesStreaming=0 removes that annoying texture streaming issue so all textures are displayed all the time and it makes the game look quite a bit better too boot since it's not rendering texture lod at various distances anymore. You'll notice the biggest difference in far away mountains, hills and other objects..
