    BC2 max out with 6950 @ 1920x1200?

    Well, I read different. x4 x4 is bottleneck for two 5850CF, so it would be for 2 6850CF.

    Jodiuh: Very interesting data you provided. Its strange becouse in reviews of 6870 on BC2 6870 beats GTX 460. Maybe its driver issue? Could you try the same meassure with older drivers?

    Or, he could CFX two 6850OC. But yes, it has other disadvatages. But performance-wise can beat GTX 580. But you need CFX enabled MB, with at least x8 x8 PCI-E lines.

    BC2 max out with 6950 @ 1920x1200?

    Well, I actually never noticed that. I mean, I have been running on the battlefield with windowed game, CPU usage opened, nd never noticed any near 100% load.

    BC2 max out with 6950 @ 1920x1200?

    Just be prepared for some serious dips. In heavy MP action you can get easily below 30 FPS even if your avg is 60 FPS. Maybe its driver issue, maybe game issue. But its true.

    BFBC2: considering upgrading

    Well, I used long times benchmarking becouse I was curious more in min FPS than average. And you never know when you get yourself into serious action. So, GPU is Gigabyte HD 6850OC, flashed with 6870 BIOS (slightly bigger voltage 1.175V and higher CCC OC limit) clocked at 900/1200MHz. What I...

    Jodiuh, eve though of some sort of medical help for you? quad at 4 GHz is more than enough at first place. When I got my 8800GT and C2D!! I got GPU limited at 3.2 GHz OC. I seriously doubt everyone thats says his framerate doubled with quad, only if their previous frequency was 2.4 GHz and...

    Well, about CPU, quad on 4 GHz should really be enough. More than enough. My Core i5 760, OC at 4.2 GHz has three cores at about 50% and last maxed out. Only way I was able to max CPU load was default 2.8 GHz frequency. With no Turbo Boost. Since you are running quad at 4 GHz, I think you sould...

    Hi, today I noticed strange thing. When doing simple survey wheather OC my GPU GDDR5 from 1100 to 1200 helps (well, and it does, by 1 FPS gain on 70 FPS :) ) I noticed this: I was playing about ten minutes on Oasis. Anyway, besides Gigabyte has really cool 6850, with 63 celsius in 35% fan...

    BFBC2: considering upgrading

    Well, its not low score, but just lower about ten FPS. I have HD6850 with CCC 10.12 I actually don´t think its CPU related becouse I have high OCed Core i5 760 on 4.2GHz, is plenty of performance.
