Should say "linked adapter" at all times. What drivers are you using? Does your CFX say enabled?

Also what does gpu-z say, 2 gpus enabled?

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.....
Yea something seems wrong, should be above 20 fps even witht he 1Gb version.

ATi tool, can't load more than one gpu at a time. It's not a good test for testing multi-gpus or much at all IMO. Get furmark and run a 90 sec. benchmark.

Any resolution you wish, this will just see if both gpus are working together.

I tried OCing the card to 695 -1050 and it gives a continuous beep around 30 secs into furmark.I think the card is overheating as it is hitting 90C.

If you have FRAPS to see what you in game fps is, here is some point of reference.

FC2 reference: 4850 X2 2GB (min. and average)

Is your Q9550 overclock stable? You should be able to do a 90 sec furmark bench without any problems. Hitting 90C in a furmark test, athough hot and pretty high, is about normal. Furmark is stronger than most game play.

Plz ignore my stupidity, but how come Q9550 OC lead to the beep as it is the GPU temp above 90C causing the beep?
