4 GPUs are working but things are limited by the CPU bottleneck, remember 2 x 290p @1080p should score roughly the same as 4 x 290Xs @1600p which is the case with yours and my cards. If I run @1000/1250 stock for 1600p I get over 120fps but overclocking only gets me another 3 or 4 fps.

If I was using a 4K monitor I think I could top 100fps with a reasonable overclock on the cards.

The funny part is I can get Mantle to run quadfire but DX11 refuses to run and just freezes when loading.

Post a 2x290X stock and overclocked score for 1080P and 1600P so i can compare mine thanks.

I've also found the game sometimes locks up my whole pc running the benchmark sequence and i have to hit the restart button.

Here is a 1080p run I did on two 290Xs @1000/1250 stock and 4930k @4.8

If I were to overclock the cards I would only get another couple of FPS.

I will do some more runs later when I get more time.

That is most odd. I will have to see if overclocking gets me any sort of decent gain. At stock i get this.

I've scored slightly higher than this at stock but im having some issues at the moment with the benchmark sequence freezing so ive not got round to testing an overclock. The gain for me is huge though.

How are you taking screen caps?

Alt-tab to window mode and screen cap will work.

Kaap i scored 134fps when i overclocked as well, however it should've been higher than that for my clocks used, 1200/1625. I clicked ok without capturing the screenshot though so will try again. :mad:

Anyone with a better cooler is going to score higher than me easily.

1080P Highest settings
290P crossfire @1200/1625
