thats not really that good, especially considering the #1 spot was held by a single graphics card, and a core 2 quad, not an i7 and pair of 4870x2's :P

3dmark 06 does not take advantage of multiple cards. So really it is like I only ran one card. You need vantage to really show what my system is about. I score 24100 in vantage. Also first place was held by an Nvidia 9800gx2 which is known as the benchmark card. 3dmark is written to run better on Nvidia cards.
 
Alright, Who called it?!?!?! Some noob came here and is going to knock all of us outta the water!! Just hold on, I'll be getting my 295 SLi soon.

I didn`t mean to rain on anybodys parade. Please post your thoughts on the 295`s once you get them up and running. When I bought my comp they were not available but from the reviews I have seen say they are only about 5-9 fps faster in most games. What I really want to know is how well the drivers work, as I have alot of issues with mine. I might switch if Nvidia has their stuff together.

Your GPU-Z screenshot shows that only 2 GPUs are enabled. Are you sure you have your quad setup running correctly? Are you running the latest release of GPU-Z? Double check the Catalyst Control Center and make sure both cards are in CrossfireX. :)
 
Hmm idk know if i might switch to i7 processor :/ i would have to relook up MB and all that but it's fun! lol I might go i7! lol

Yea I have the one card disabled right now. 3dmark does not take advantage of it so I disabled it for less heat.
 
if 3dmark06 didn't take advantage of multiple cards, the 4870x2 and the 9800gx2/gtx 295 would all be rendered completly useless in that, thats why you only get 30k with a single 4870x2 compared to 35k with a pair of 4870x2's

Lol no worries man, it's cool. I love to see these awesome set-ups though. :D Good job btw!....I'm trying to be a good sport so... sniff sniff, I think I just lost the third spot to...omega...
 
tell me what you think of the two cards, i think i might still go with the 4870x2, because their prices are dropping, and with an intel board, i can crossfire, but the 295 is still currently within 100 dollars of the cheapest 4870x2
