Here's hoping to 9.12 drivers being much better

Nice! Hope to see some real world benchmarks too.

By the way, I live in Texas, but spent a semester in Brisbane during my undergrad a while back. Can't wait to get back someday.

It's people like you that are causing the huge shortage of 5870's. I'm jealous

Nice case!!....LOL

Very very nice dude...

This is a cool thread, thanks for the pics. I was curious as to what you get on just ONE 5870, no OC? Could you post similar pics for that?

What you posted here gave me some great ideas, but I am so curious as to what we can get with ONE?

Also, is it possible to run 2 monitors in crossfire, and even better 3?

That xeon is a BEAST

 

[Borealis7]

well it IS under water.

I hope the 9.12 get you better results, my 4850X2 scored a 11415 on its own

they look damn beastly in that rig!

i think driver work is being done for that but no idea. I haven't bothered with single 5870 yet as tri-cf is more fun

indeed it is W3570 does HT enabled 4600-4803mhz 3d benching just on water cooling!

yup confirmed these new 9.12 beta (8.14.10.0716) drivers are bloody awesome for 3x HD5870 Tri-CrossfireX - new personal best scores all round for me. Even managed to squeeze out a bit more on my W3570 using 29x multi instead of 27x multi and jump in vcore from 4614mhz at 1.448v to 4695mhz 1.520v.
