Default [TcMag] (released!) Catalyst 8.3 to be released today, AMD said it scales good

Quote:
Catalyst 8.3 will be a very important driver update for AMD/ATI. Because the driver finally enable the multiple CrossfireX for HD 3800 series.

AMD already published Catalyst 8.3 press release yesterday here. And before all this someone have already ran a test based on dual 3870 X2, and the score are very good.

The Driver will be release later via game.amd.com, anyone interested about the multi card CFX should flash that page every 5 seconds.

Well they are using dual dual-GPU-sing-pcb cards. So weird things like that should be expected. Wait, what WERE they using again?
