** A BIT OF DUAL GPU THRASHING!! **

[Gibbo]

Sorry for those are you who thought this may have being something else.

Still for an old girl, the 7990 can put in some very impressive numbers:-

Turn off the Tesselation in the AMD drivers and the scores start to get a little crazy:-

So who like me is rather excited to see what AMD's and NVIDIA's new dual GPU cards can achieve when you crossfire/SLI a pair of them!

Crossfired 7990, Gibbo you nutter making me jealous!

Oh and for those interested, a lovely 3000 Hash Rate from that setup in mining.

Are you using Matts bios Gibbo?

Yeah no throttling BIOS, I was testing them as we've had a few back un-wanted from customers or that they were faulty.

Three out of four fine, they were not thrashed too much, only about 1130Mhz on the core and upto 7000MHz on the memory. Four one works, just fans don't turn, so that's gonna get blocked up.

They have now all being B-graded and purchased by staff to mine on, LOL.

Gibbo why do you and 8 Pack always use the lower settings in Unigine Heaven 3.0 (as commonly used by these forums as you say), your results always look artificially high, we have had Thread to compare with for ages, please use these settings so at least a comparable comparison can be made.

5. Score 3707, GPU 7990 x 2, @1185/1594, CPU 3930k @4.5, ToxicTBag

As 8 Pack says, we prefer it.
If you want to compare, just run Heaven 3.0 yourself at the same settings as us.
