Look what wandered in...(CrossfireX benchin')

Well.....




It begins

As far as game testing? I havent quite figured out what ones to do....


Most likely -

3dMark05/06
PCMark05/Vantage
(like the above are real showing of this cards performance, but I like them all the same)
Lightsmark
FUR Rendering test
Bioshock
Crysis
The Witcher
STALKER


Cheers


PS- Expect high CPU clock (4000mhz+), not so much on RAM though (traded 8888C4DF for 8GB of 8500C5D/ Waiting on 9136 4GB kits.

Had to sleep it was 6am my time

EDIT: For simplicity of testing.....

All tests will be run at 450x8 (3.6ghz) DDR2 900 4-4-4-12 and Cards at stock. Just for the ease of doing game testing.

Also I will post up a 4ghz cpu with like DDR2 1100 and 4-4-4-12/5-5-5-15 (not sure what this ram will do yet) of the futuremark suites.

However.... testing on Crysis is on hold but from what I saw with DX10 @ high its a very nice improvement. And using the custom DX9 settings for DX10 looks, and 2x AA it runs flawlessly, thats actually what made it jump over 900W.
