Hi all i think my quad sli isnt functioning.
I understand it dont give double the peformance but 8700 isnt a great score on a conroe x6800.


system specs
2x 7950gx2 xfx xxx
conroe x6800
2 gig of corsair dominator

drivers 91.47...
 
Mad tho my old mans spec is

asus p5 mainboard
intel x6800
dominator ram 4 gig of it
quad sli 7950gx2

and he got that score

and my setup is

asus a8n32sli
amd x2 3800 oc @ 2.6
2 gig of kingston crap
7950gx2

And im getting 8230 in 3dmark06

In my view thats not really omfg score for the price hes laid out.

just on ram alone his is 500 quid more & the cpu is 500 more 1k in money is a lot forget the rest of his setup.
(I hope a new board comes out that really pushes his system)I dont see where the amazing conroe kicks in. I know about the encoding side will own. But for the cash laid out it really isnt omfg look at that go.
 
Gurusan money is no object so thats out of the running. I just hope it works for him as he is disapointed and i dont blame him...

But he is getting a new mobo when it gets released and he is overclocking so dont worry about that.
