You dont know what you are talking about. cpu bottleneck is only visible on low resolutions, where the videocards can process the highest output. Put it all on the highest graphics and the videocard becomes the bottleneck, a faster cpu doesn't help there. Look it up, such tests only show major results on 1024x768. When they test on cpu bottleneck on 1680 or even 1920x1080 / 1200, the bottleneck is maybe 1-3 fps or less. But everyone thinks they are right, from their perspective
I have a higher cpu score with 3ghz q6600... but waaaaay lower gpu with my gts 250. lol. And correct me if im wrong, but i only saw 3 graphics cards, wouldnt it be 3-way crossfire?
i got also the i7 920 and overcloccket an i7 only got 4 real kernel and 4 virtuel kernel they are just good for working until the new update is out -.-
it was before youtube HD, so youtube never saved a higher quality version, you fucking retard. I just said the same 2 messages below. Besides I don't brag about it, I don't even own this anymore. Jealous motherfucker.
i've stretched a 800x600 video recording to test out the hd feature of utube... guess what... my video looks better than yours. Why you ask? cuz your recording sucks!
lol youre retarded this was made back in 08 may 2008, in those days this was really extreme, but now days there is quad core like i7 that can run 4 ghz and gtx 295 and ati 4870 x2 and soon the geforce 300 series and ati 5000 series is out
@keelsie, yup, but imagine 2x Asus Mars, that's 4x GTX 285. And most board only have 2 pcie x16 slots, so this would get you max performance per slot.
Why dont the manufacturers make gfx cards so they do 4 CARDS with 2 gpus per card... thats what I want & I dont care what my electric bill will be.....
Yes, the cards are sold some months ago. I bought a 280GTX last summer instead. The cpu, motherboard and ram are replaced with an core i7 920, gigabyte x58 ud4p and 3gb ddr3.
with such an amazing graphical setup, why on earth did you choose a dual core cpu.....thats just retarded.... you should have atleast gone with a Q6600 and overclocked it to 4GHZ- would have made your computer that much faster and quicker in response.
No whats retarded is keeping up a 9 month old video with no updated info- thats retarded. Thats what alot of people use to comment off of. What person who is just leaving a comment is going to check a persons account for other videos as a reference to make sure your comment is up to date? Nobody is gonna do that.
It shows a date on the video. If you'd use that small brain of yours, maybe, just maybe you could understand that a hardware enthausiast that pays for this kind of stuff stays up to date.
Go fuck yourself little teen fuck. I don't need you here.
Lol, i was seeing how you ahve a gtx280 njow yes? well i am going to be a cheap ass and buy 2x3870x2's & put it in my Yes AMD phenom ii x4 940 system when they release the that CPU it will be in there with my other 3870 thats the only reason im staying with 3870's because i already own one, lol i noticed your a Dutchy ;) my gf is dutch & my old best mate :) i'm from aus so its rare.
Oh ok i didnt know it wouldnt work :S concidering you can have hybrid.. but anyway, i was going to get a HIS hd4870x2, or 2x4850's because its cheaper.. i dont know but atm i'm looking for a good AM2+ motherboard :) like M3A32 wifi... i would love an opinion on it thanks :)
Nah its ok lol it's like the worst one look at the reviews.. i already bought a DFI LP DK 790FXB MRSH, and i bought OCZ Reaper 4gb 1066 ram last night just need my phenom ii now :) 940.
Dualcore still beats quads concerning gaming. bit-tech[dot][net] has proven this, guru3d and maxishine. Look it up or i'll sent you some links myself if you can't find it.
your right because the core2 quads have two virtual cores and two physical cores games only use physical cores how ever the I7's have 4 physical cores and 8 virtual cores so they should be way better ill know when i get my school refund ;0
It varies but most E8xxx clock very good. Depends on CPU cooler use (temp), motherboard (which bios etc) and the cpu itself (some clock better, even if they are both the same model) and ram. Good luck with it :)
i really don't see much of a difference in gaming experience between and duo and a quad since i've tried both of em out. but im a multitasker and like to listen to lots of music and download vids while gaming so quad is for me i guess but duo probably outperforms at a higher clockrate but you can't multitask
Well the fact that most games don't even make use of 2 cores fully means you do not need a quadcore for multitasking while gaming. (Kinda weird anyway). I download HD-movies with usenet while listening to music and having explorer on my second monitor while playing Crysis Warhead.. An example, I can do as much as most people can with quads. Only professional rendering and programs like photoshop and videoencoding has profit from a quad. Multitasking like you do has nothing to do with it.
really? I dunno... but i heard lots of games are starting to use multi processor technology so i just wanna stay up on quad until the ie7's get cheaper
Orly? Check out the link I sent you. It's a test on bit-tech with quad vs dual, real life benchmarking. And as I stated before, It does not make use of 4 cores. Even not crysis.
ive seen it before, ill explain how a quad works compared to a dual, ive had multiple types of chips, e8400,e8500,q6600,q6700,qx9770, and now a core i7 956. ive benchmarked them all, with super pi, prime 95 and many others, with the quads(since they are 2 dual cores), the load is distributed, sometimes unevenly, ive run crysis maxed out dx10 and patch, with full load on each core with two 260core216's sli and just a q6600 and averaged 50fps, on my gaming rig its even higher.
Prime 95 and superpi only utilize 1 core. So what you are saying doesn't make any sense. The crysis explanation doesn't prove anything either. I've talked to some guys that I know that really owned alot of hardware. Maxishine and R34PER both conclude that a quadcore doesn't add anything to GAMING experience. It might do it for other apps, like rendering with Maya or 3dsmax. You are just selling plain crap here.
high clock dual always beats quad because dual cores can be overclocked more than quads and since there is no multithreading 4x slow cores does not beat 2x high clock even if quad has higher 3dmark
I would be afraid to overclock a wolfdale what with the thermal sensor bug. You don't know how hot it's getting... In fact, I'd wouldn't want to get one of those stinking cheap-ass wolfdales anyway because of that bug.
It is always below 37 degrees, when it rises above the sensor counts up. Atleast one core's sensor always works, my idle temp is around 26-28 degrees celcius. Go ahead and buy a Q9650 which is basically 2 wolfdales sticked together. Games don't even use 4 cores so I don't have a need to buy it. If you wanna be Mr. Expensive go ahead :D
It's true, it's not good to be running your psu at high load all the time, it's gonna take away from it's lifespan, or theirs other things like it overheating, or it could die and take the rest of your system with it, always a possibility. The power supply is the most important part in your pc, if you buy a top notch rig and a low end, crappy brand power supply, then the outcome isn't good.
get an x48 board, not x38, or you will experience stuttering. this is because x38 runs at x8 and x16, rather than x16 x16, which means the bandwidths get this weird microstutter effect. other than that, if you can live with microstutter, x38 is fine
X38 has x16 x16 lanes (total of 32 lanes)PCI-e 2.0. X48 is nothing more but an updated bios. The hardware is 100% identical (chipset). People even bios flashed their X38 mobo's to X48 with no problems.
Go in google and search: X38 pci-e lanes
Hit the first link. Try to prove me wrong. By the way microstuttering is an issue of the onboard PLX pci-e switch on the 3870X2 itself. It's a hardware issue.
Depends what games, 3870X2 is mostly faster than 4850. Check my crossfire fix for grid, then the 3870x2 is faster in it, review websites don't make use of the fix.
nice vid...I have geforce8800GT x2 in SLI and I run crysis on high and highest res on about 40 fps....I have the very high mod on to....but I don't like crysis, sure it look's amazing but it's not fun...shoot the guy 10 times and I don't die? hmm...not funny

Hit the first link. Try to prove me wrong. By the way microstuttering is an issue of the onboard PLX pci-e switch on the 3870X2 itself. It's a hardware issue.

Thanks, too bad hardware gets old so fast lol. But im just waiting for a 4870X2. Only real rich people can afford all the newest everytime.
keldererik 3 years ago
Yep, i'm proud to say that you must be rich :)
Or just having so relation to someone in the market who can get you cards for "testing" resources.
To bad, i'm not neither rich, and no relation with anyone "in the market".

X2, not X4.
If you didn't knew, the 3870X2 has 2 GPU's. LOL
X4 would be 8 GPU's...
keldererik 3 years ago

umm yea..... but what heat sink specifically did you use
jellyjugs7554 3 years ago
ram + motherboard would help too
jellyjugs7554 3 years ago
As you can see it's the stock heatsinks, for cpu I used artic freezer 7 pro. And the specs you can see in the beginning of the movie.

Depends what games, 3870X2 is mostly faster than 4850. Check my crossfire fix for grid, then the 3870x2 is faster in it, review websites don't make use of the fix.

bob333336 3 years ago
Maybe in crysis because multi gpu (more than 2 is not really supported very well).
keldererik 3 years ago
im crossfireing a hd4850 with my single hd3870x2 its just a lil better than your setup, like 5% but its cheaper

crysis scales like a bitch. even with the patch it seams to be nvidia Sli racist. why can't more games support ati.
venom55520 3 years ago
It scales very good, but I think many reviewers forget to use r_multigpu 1 in console -.-
