X1950 Xtx Crossfire Help Please?

[LASSO]

Hi Guys,

Ok so I believed the hyp and bought a second X1950 XTX to crossfire with my original master card.
So far I have noticed little if not no pewrformace increase and I actually got a lower 3d mark 06 score with more hardware?!?!?

I don't get it - whats more ATI and Connect3d are absolutley useless for support.

How do I know if this is working?

All of the crossfire options are there in the Catalist control centre but the performace isn't.


Can anyone else advise of a good troubleshoot or fix to get my monies worth out of these cards.

Before anyone asks I have a rig which is inclusive of all Crossfire essential components.

Thanks in advance.

Try run,type:DXDIAG run Direct X tests...As for crossfire,a ton of info can
be had at:http://www.tomshardware.com This site has been around since the
web was started,see what specifics you can get on thier tests for that
hardware...
