Thx for testing it, but it's bad news
![]() I know clone mode is OK, but I need to have TS and other consoles open while flying ![]() I think waiting for new drivers is my hope... |

How does crossfire perform against a single card with the new 48xx series cards?
Over the last year I've had the opportunity to run a few different configurations. E6800 @3.7 paired with (in order) 1x ATI1800XL, 2x NV8800 Ultra's, 2 xATI2900 1gig and finally a single NV8800GTX. Which I still run My finding were that the Nvidia's had easily the most grunt when it comes to fps but the Ati's had the best IQ. In fact the only reason I ended up keeping the 8800GTX is because it out performed the 2900 in Crossfire in IL2, which is pretty much all I play. Which brings me back to the Crossfire question. I found that 2x2900 did not improve FPS over a single 2900. Benchies in IL2 would give the exact same results regardless of the configuration. Has this been addressed with the newer cards/drivers.

Sorry, I had them, but deleted when reinstalled. I went back to 8800GT, it works better without strange ray-like/whirl artifacts. As fps, with 4850 I was getting about the same as you, but now I get 95 avg, 350 max, 30 min in the above mentioned track, at 4x AA, perfect, etc. 19" LCD.

Hi!
I recently got myself a new system, E7200 (@3,16ghz), 4 gb RAM, HD4850, Vista 64. With using the 1946 4.09b, beta DLLs, Cat 8.7 I get a reproducable crash in The Black Death track after running it for about a minute. Other tracks seem to run fine. I suspect it's an issue with the still early Catalyst drivers which have been reported as not being stable with the 48xx-cards. Can anyone with a comparable system confirm this? Thanx. |

I can confirm that crash, but I'm not sure if it was with 8.7 or 8.6 Fixed drivers and if it was in OpenGL or DirectX...
I can try it again today afternoon. So just ran it with 8.6 Fixed drivers and no crash in The Black Death (tried both OpenGL and DirectX - so it seems like the latest drivers problem..) Last edited by Tomik; 07-30-2008 at 03:50 PM. Reason: Track tested |
