nice vid +) i have a single card 5870 and use 8 gig ddr2 an a quad core at 3.6ghz

and hitting around 1567 pionts in heaven dx 11 iam realy hapy whit it ok i use anti anylising 8x its enough for me avarge frames around 50 love this card =) but isnt 3 of them overkill? if i look to your frames it isnt a big gap isnt but cool vid and awesome system mate realy iam yelous xD

I wish a single 5870 would get 50fps with those settings @ 1920x1080 resolution.

The Heaven gaming engine performs very well with ATI 5xxx series cards in that you get almost 100% scaling with them

This would mean that a 2 x 5870s setup would give almost 100% better performance than a single 5870, and 3 x 5870s would give almost 200% better performance than a single 5870.

When you play all games @ 1920x1080 @ 24xAA/16xAF/VSYNC/Triple Buffering along with all the game mods, you need 3 x 5870s :)

It looks like it has poor crossfire scaling, it looks like only 1 card is active considering your overclock and other benchmarks. Also I believe your loading issues are caused by the processor not being strong enough for the 4 GPUs. Nothing you can really do about it with Quad Cores. Like you said you have to go to high overclocks to fully utilize all 4 GPUs.

I don't think people really understand the magic of tesselation in the comments. Its controllable, and making it is just 1 more bake.

@falchard

First of all, it is 3 GPUs. You will notice in the title that it says "Tri-Fire".

Secondly, scaling on the 5870s in this gaming engine in particular is virtually 100%!!!

1 GPU = 70/3 = 23.3fps

2 GPU = 70/2 = 35fps

3 GPU = 70/1 = 70fps

Every benchmark on the net using 3 x 5870s in Tri-Fire in the Heaven Benchmark @ 1920x1080/1920x1200 resolution using 8xAA/16xAF on the highest IQ settings average out at around 70fps...

[falchard]

Thats odd. I have been seeing benchmarks at 50 fps with tesselation on. They must have been at a lower resolution.

Not according to your comments. You have 3 HD5870, and a nVidia GPU acting as a physics processor. They are all technically GPUs.

[luv2increase]

Since this game has does not use any PhysX whatsoever, only the 3 x ATI GPUs are rendering the frames. In games that support PhysX, a "dedicated" PhysX card will "only" compute the PhysX within the game and does not render any actual images.

[guicapone2]

Tri or dual?

[luukske21]

@luv2increase dude thatis so incorrect,, xD

its :

70/3 = 23.3

1 gpu = 1x23.3 = 23.3

2 gpu = 2x23.3= 46.6

3 gpu = 3x23.3 = 69,9

smartass >.<

[C87Style]

What did you have to do to get the 9800 GPU to run PhysX?

[KalmahRocks]

@mugen1237 tri-5870 has better scaling.

[tuk1maar]

wow, just wow my amd x6 @ 2,8ghz with an ati 6970 gets around 1100 points and you are even using 3 cards compared to my signle gpu solution.

Just astonishing what amd does with their new generation gpu's ^_^

[climb2freak]

How are ur temps? I got just the same cpu, but a Corsair H50. 3.5 Ghz, @ 1.34 Vcore I get max 85°C with prime after 1 hour... Plz tell me your temps...

[ryancouture]

anyone ever tell you you sound just like woody harrelson

[adbms]

that is super cool

[mugen1237]

@luv2increase What about 2 x 5970s?
