Well, did my first run with the 4850's. My main concern now was seeing how it does against the GX2, identical settings for each run, everything including CPU and GPU's at defaults.
See for yourself.

Very nice I was stuck right between the two with my 4850s on a super clocked AMD 920 :)
17.6K

I would not do the mem volt mod though that is how I killed my 4850 :(

I'll read through that when I get home with more time. How high clocked was your 920?

I did not know about driver versions at the time though either. Could have probably eeked out a few more points.

No bad. I noticed thatfrom my stick settings to my 4.6ghz bench settings 3d marked averaged about 50fps more. Amazing! Lol

I meant had an i7 when I had my 4850s.
Does the $999.98 come with a time machine too? :D

This is where I'm at right now with the 4850's. Stock mem, CPU can go up to about 4620 MHz, but I'll leave that for last. :D

Nice start :) Freaking GREAT score too, I so suck at 3d benching :(

What's killing me is need of more voltage. With the GX2 I use EVGA Voltage Tuner. Any software for ATI cards?

Nice runs David! :D DOn't forget 01 and AQ3.

Had to get some rest Kal. I did run 01 though, but it was not BOINT worthy. I have to run 01 as a dual core to get a good points boost, quads or quads with HT don't do well in 01.

Here are some single card action, more BOINTS on the way :)
