x6k in vantage? heh doesnt sound like much of a gtx 280 killer. I cant wait though to see some benchers get their hands on them though.
3DMark is a synthetic benchmark. A simple driver update can change a score dramatically.

I'd say when ATI update the drivers you'd see an improvement.

1x 4870X2 & a 4850 in CF ...

for my CF board with x16 & x4 slots ...think that would work quite well

do you think my 2180 will bottleneck @ 3.2ghz...?

how much does 1 stock gtx280 get extreme wise? im betting that 8k will be reachable by the looks of things. X2 drivers should improve more than single gpu cards in theory.

The x4 slot will bottle neck the 4850 like no other. If you want to go CF, get an X38.

The 4870x2 has 2GB whilst the 4870 has 512. will Crossfire with a 4870 eliminate 1GB of memory from the x2 ? (im sure this is helpful to some people )
? sorry, but i don't think this issue has been raised. I haven't read all the articles on the 4870x2, so it may already be answered.
