I thought the different clocks and memory was true also... but I checked the ATI site and came up with this:

Quote:
5. What happens when graphics cards with varying memory speeds and engine clocks are paired together?

A. In this scenario, overall performance will be adjusted to match the memory speeds and engine clocks of the lower clocked card. To obtain ideal performance, graphics cards should be paired correctly.

Granted, they haven't updated some of the crossfire stuff since the 4890 came out. Did this change?

Why don't you test it.

You're using CFX, clock both your cores to 850 and run a quick benchmark, run the bench again with 1 core at 850 and the other at 950, note any performance gains. Do the same with the memory.

I know when I ran CFX 4870/4850 I could oc either card and see an improvement.

Does increasive the memory clock on the 4890 from 1000Mhz to 1100 actually make any difference?

Not really. Being 256bit/GDDR5 they are not bandwidth starved. Nor do they need the extra, it helps a little bit on 1920x1xxx res +. But only by a few FPS.
