@gamerro25 i got a question, since you have 2 5870 crossfire whats the score? and what score did windows gave you on the windows experience index assesses also?
Did you sell your 4870 x2's or are they just sitting around still because i could use them for my test bench if u still have them and you would like to sell them
what version of CCC are you useing? i have just installd 2x 5870 crossfire too but it seems that without crossfire the fps is the same or even a litle better on world of warcraft max graphics that with crossfire enabled , and suggestions on getting the most out of crossfireing these cards?
I have 8gb of ddr3 1333 , and a 2.80ghz phenom II x6 on a GiGABYTE 890GPA-UD3H motherboard
if you've got a vga screen, what are you doing with one of the best HD cards in the world? :-P buy a new screen aswell! xD Full HD. Or use the full HD tv if you've one
after about a year you have to pull the cowlings out and clean the heat sinks cause a lot of dust builds up in there and it'll overheat, i had similar problems with my 4870
You bought cards from the wrong manufacturer, man... that couple is gonna run like 90*C Vapor is $20 more for like 40*C drop, really worth it. Although, I don't know whether they were released yet at the 2nd of November.
Nice rig mate.Ive finally got rif of pentium 4 and 7600 GT :P as Ive just bought 2 ATI 5870 and new i7 980x CPU , asus rampage 2 extreme :). Will do benchmarks aswell soon.
yes double post wtver.. just a word of advice to any1 that is thinking of getting the asus rampage MB's and is going to use these cards in xfire, do your self a fav and get the extreme edition your Gpu's will be spaced out better and will have less cooling problems. the gene MB dosnt least any room between the 2 cards for the top one to pull in air so it ends up running about 15ºC hotter than normal
@gamerro25 currently its just a hack and slash OC its sitting at 1.38 and the memory is still at clock speeds i havnt done much and its not much of a boost but its nice eye candy. :D my cpu is the D0 stepping i got the chip late last year
Nice Machine dude.I just order 2 xfx 5870 cant wait no more on the 5970 sold out in north amirica.People say two 5870's performe better then one 5970, I'll let you know
Yeah like "LedwezNelson" said in the comment below you have crossfire disabled. I'm not sure if you had it on during the benchmark but if it was off during the benchmark imagine the score you would get with it enabled.
im building a new i7 rig soon and i was gonna put a hd 5870 in it but im just gonna go with a hd 4890 and wait untill fermi comes out then i decide if i want to go with fermi or 5870
yeah 4870x2 is faster but consumes more power if u r a gamer like me thats not an issue right ?i ll stick with my gtx295 till i see GT300 from nvidia,DX11 is so distant,the best games out and the coming up ones gonna be DX9(think MW2)so dont rush to get 5870 unless u have the money to up grade again in couple months.
well' theres couple videos with the performance of the GF100 (Fermi)on utube its about 30-40% faster than 5870 but ill upgrade nex gen I think Ican run any game out there,
whats the brand of the power supply ur using? cause it looks like mine i have a epower 1000 watt. BTW nice rig i'll also be getting 2 5870 one in jan and other in feb i won't have enough money to buy 2 at the same time. my rig
ok i just got 2 5870`s in crossfire , and one thing i cant work out is how do i get the second card to run its fan faster . any help would be great thx
Hi, open the Cataylst CC and go to ATI Overdrive. Click "Select GPU to configure:" and click and choose the 2nd ATI Radeon HD 5870 in that box and this should enable you to adjust the fan speed manually for the 2nd card. If this doesn't just download MSI Afterburner which I think is a better program to overclock card and automatic fan speed control which can be configured to your discretion.
I7 boards handle 16 lanes in two channels at the chipset without requiring a intervening proprietary chipset like the older SLI boards on 775 platforms.
Looks pretty sweet. Just got my 790fx msi motherboard and amd 965 processor installed with v8 cooler and two kits of dominator gt 2000 mhz 4 gb memory. Just need to get my xfi titanium champion sound card and two ATI 5890's "when they come out" Also have two 300 gb veloci raptors that are going in raid zero when I have all my parts.
The only drivers that ATI has out that works PHENOMENALLY for the 5850/5870 cards are the Catalyst 9.11 Beta4 OpenCL/Stream drivers!!! I get an "average" of 177% performance increase from going from a single 5870 to Tri-Fire on my 4.1ghz i7 Classified rig. ENJOY THEM!!!!
just put a secound connector to the cards it will give you 100P. more in 3D Mark 06 and round about 20 - 40 in 3D Mark 11

hey, i got 2x 5870 Sapphire Toxic running on 800CC 1150MC.
But on my GPUz the 2dn card is always on 0% load.. and always on 157CC 300MC, even when the 1st "main" card is on 99% load.
Is the card busted? Or is it just a connection issue?

1 5970 has GPU's inside, so its 2 graphics cards...
Its much better to get 2x5870's because its less power consuming, more heat efficient and performs a little better.
