HIS ICE Q X 7850 Crossfire Benches

Both, for better cooling and the sycthe's make a hell of a lot less noise than the stock fans. I was going to replace it with the OCUK stock range of coolers last month when it was £46 as it had a thicker radiator but after looking at some user's temps I decided to keep my H60 as there was no difference in temps.

Thanks for the response majnu, I take it you've not had any issues with the noise of the pump?

The minimum frame rate shows at 0 though, you should run it again.

I'm interested in the minimums as i have 2x6950 in xfire unlocked and overclocked to 670 speeds.
 
Some really interesting results there. I have seen Lightnings overclocked hitting 10k on heaven, but these surpass this, for less. Clearly the issue the future upgrade path, but it's very clear the performance is scaling extremely well in CF.

Sorry completely forgot about this. When everything runs well you just want to play games, but I'll post the results when I get a chance. However I have changed drivers since then and BF3 has been updated so bear that in mind.

I replied in your thread. The performance is great once overclocked, but that is always a gamble based on the card and different setups. Remember that 7970's can be overclocked too, and with single card solutions there is less noise and heat to deal with.
 
Too late now. Ordered 2 MSI 7850 Power OC Editions :) I expect good speeds.

Although if i'm honest there is a hint of regret that I didn't just bite the bullet and get 2 7950's or atleast 2 7870's, for another £40/80 approx, which i'll stew on it over the weekend.
