Can someone benchmark Eyefinity 6970 crossfire in Arma 2?

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
I'm currently using a single 6970 and it doesn't have quite enough juice to run arma 2 in eyefinity at a playable FPS. It's pretty good on a single screen, but frame rates dip low on 3 screens and my inputs seem delayed.
I'm thinking about buying a second 6970 but it would be awesome if someone could benchmark theirs first since this would be a costly upgrade (I would need a bigger power supply as well).
I ran benchmark test 1 at 5760x1080. Everything maxed except for AA set to normal. My result was 20 FPS. If someone with crossfire 6970's can run this same test or have similar benchmark results from 6970 vs 6970 x2 that would be awesome. Thanks! thumb.gif

keep in mind ARMA 2 needs a fast HD or better, a SSD in order to work silky smooth

the only site that test ARMA 2 its this http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/2011/09/16/his-hd-6970-iceq-turbo-2gb-review/5

So based upon those results it looks like going xfire has ~35% increase, so u could assume that the benchmark for arma 2 would be about 27 fps. Does this sound right to u guys?
