    I'd love to know how you all are getting over 4K out of your CPUs, mine isn't perfectly stable over 3.8 but I haven't messed with voltages and other settings I know little to nothing about.. I'm thinking of a new GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD7 mobo and the new AMD FX-9590 Vishera 4.7GHz Socket AM3+ 220W...

    I think the issue is lack of profiles for some games as BF3 flies at over 125FPS in full Ultra resolution now. Forcing Crossfire in games that don't support it may be an issue also (slower FR than 1 card) so i'm going to try it with that box unticked next. I popped in ARMA3 online just before...

    k thanks, i'll run Heaven tonight and post the results.. Downloaded it and ran for a while on my office desktop, was getting 2FPS and I finally pulled the plug after 10 minutes... Does it give Benchmark numbers at the end of its run?

    Two 7970s in crossfire slower than one alone?

    Thanks guys. I updated the BIOS on both my motherboard and the video cards to the latest last night, then grabbed the latest Cat driver set. Seems about the same but i'm going to try some other games as it could just be the ARMA series that doesn't like crossfire. As far as ULPS, where would I...

    I've seen and read about this issue but have not seen a solution anywhere. I have two Gigabyte GV-R797OC-3GD cards (added #2 this week), linked in the following system: Antec Full Tower/New Rosewill RBR1000-M 1000W PSU Gigabyte GA-P67X-UD3-B3 Intel i7 Sandy Bridge at 3.8gz 8Gb Crucial 64...
