Ok I've been testing out my recently bought crossfire setup and it seems I get absolutely zero performance boost in Crossfire mode.
In Crysis benchmark I get avg 45 fps on very high settings with Crossfire enabled and disabled.
In TF2 I'm hitting ~100 fps with the lowest drop at 60 fps with crossfire enabled/disabled.
Company of Heroes with newest patch I do ~48-55 fps at 1024x768 and in crossfire thats not impressive. With the old version 1.0 I was hitting 250fps!! (apparently )
but again, same fps with CF enabled/disabled.
I checked the Graphics Hardware tab.. and this is what I see for 2nd adapter:
I know for sure that with crossfire enabled, the 2nd adapter should say "Linked Adapter".
My mobo is a gigabyte p45 but it doesn't have any settings (from what I've seen) that let you enable/disable PCI-e buses so I assume that its turned on.
GPU-Z reports that Crossfire is enabled but I don't believe it.. I think its just reading the CCC "Enable Crossfire" checkmark.
Also, in device manager both 4870s are running with no errors.
What the bloody ATI??? I should be smoking every game in this setup.
Does anyone have experience with this kind of problem?
