Another nice score and I see the "feature tests" really didn't have effect on your score. You increase ~150 points across the board. Rep+ for your efforts.

Btw, what mhz is your i7 at in this bench?

Just got my 4850x2 1GB card......but Far Cry 2 @ 1920x1200 and 2x AA is really laggy.Am i doing something wrong?

Drivers are 9.6 and it feels like only one of the cores is working.

Explain more. Did drivers install properly? FC2: lagging online? Slower than whatever card you were running before? Do you have gpu-z running to see if both gpus are working? See anything weird in you CCC? Does it show CrossfireX enabled? Do you have FRAPS to see about what fps you are at in FC2?

Correct skugpezz. Around 1900 res. is about the point where the 1GB version starts to loss performance. Just not enough memory.

Yep, drivers are installed fine after a couple attempts at DriverSweeper.and i used to play FC2 @ 1680 with NO AA using the 4850 and even after getting this X2 card, i am not able to play satisfactorily @ full HD , FPS shud be well below 20 even with AA disabled.

CCC shows as CrossfireX enabled. but when stress testing using Atitool,only one of the GPU is being stressed as per CCC,the other remains idle dunno why.....
