    AMD Radeon 6990+6970 CrossFireX / "TriFire" Review @ [H]

    I like how just when we get to the point of being able to max stuff out on our displays, we come up with triple monitors to kick our own asses! Now maximum quality at 60 fps is impossible again! I wonder if it will be feasible in the next generation of cards. I hope a Radeon 7900 or GTX 600...

    Dragon Age 2 Performance Follow-Up @ [H]

    Isn't the 5970 supposed to be the competitor to the 580, even though its an older card? In that case, how does the 5970 fare in a showdown like this? I feel like the tesselation performance might not be that great on the 5970 since its older. I actually have a 5970 and can play with no lag with...

    CCC Profile + Eyefinity Issues

    Does anyone now know how to get these Eyefinity Profiles working in CCC 2? In fact, I can't get any profiles at all to do what I want. Can someone give me a blow by blow description of how to store the monitor arrangement into a Profile (or preset as they are now called)? I hit hotkeys, activate...

    AMD Radeon HD 6990 "Antilles" Sneek Peek @ [H]

    I bought the 5970 around launch and did have to pay around $700, perhaps due to limited stock and higher demand. At the same time, the 5870 were around $400 or so, so the price still seemed right.

    AMD Catalyst 10.12 Drivers and Preview Package

    Nevermind. So sleep deprived that all those issues I mentioned were my own fault. I forgot to reboot after installing! After rebooting due to some scheduled Windows Updates, CCC returned to having all the normal features and toggles that I have come to expect, and my Internal Crossfire on my...

    AMD Catalyst 10.12 Drivers and Preview Package

    Anyone here running these new drivers with a 5970 or Crossfire? I can't find a way to toggle between GPU's anywhere including Overdrive, so I can't use CCC to make sure both GPU's are being utilized with the activity meter. They also seemed to have gotten rid of that option to show the...

    GTX 580 vs. Radeon 6970, should I wait?

    I have my own small operation for these kinds of situations. (ClunkyComputers.com) I haven't spend much time self promoting and polishing the site because I'm busy with other pursuits as well. But yeah, I think its ridiculous what people get charged just for wanting some decent hardware. And...

    GTX 580 rumors

    Holy crap, that's almost depressing! Two BARTS are beating my Hemlock? ... sigh... Can't stop progress, eh? Way to go AMD! ::thinks about 6990 (Antilles):: ::shudders::

    GTX 580 rumors

    I have a 5970 myself. Isn't the way they rigged it that the stock clock for the 5970 is under the PCI-E TDP limit, but they engineered the card so it is easily overclockable to at least 5870 clock speeds, which is OVER the PCI-E official limit? (I can clock mine to 900/1200 personally)...

    CCC Profile + Eyefinity Issues

    Nevermind, evidently if I just hit my hot key for the Extended Profile a second time, the displays will rearranged themselves into the correct order.

    CCC Profile + Eyefinity Issues

    I too am having an issue switching between an Eyefinity Profile and my Extended Desktop. I can switch TO the Eyefinity Profile fine, but when I switch back the monitors are in the wrong order. This is with version 10.4. I think it was working better in 10.3 so I may just roll it back. Any ideas...

    Fix for 5xxx series multiple-monitor flashing using 2D desktop apps

    Just FYI, this was all with me having 3 1080p DVI monitors, 2 connected to the Card, 1 connected to the motherboard (with 10.3 WHQL). As soon as I receive my active miniDP to DVI converter, I will be using 3 Monitors to the card, so I'll post again if the 3 monitor connection to the card raises...

    Fix for 5xxx series multiple-monitor flashing using 2D desktop apps

    Well played... I unchecked Overdrive and my clocks went up to 400/1000 (i had previously left my CCC open all night and when I sat at my computer it was reading 157/400 for some strange reason). So I'm now at 400/1000 and I don't see anymore flashing or flickering distortions on my desktop...

    Fix for 5xxx series multiple-monitor flashing using 2D desktop apps

    I've tried both want_0 and want_1, still doesn't do what I want. However, I did notice something strange. When I click to activate the relevant profile, after a few seconds the current clocks will temporarily jump up to the higher settings for a second or two, then go back to 400/600. I will...

    Fix for 5xxx series multiple-monitor flashing using 2D desktop apps

    Sure, please find my profile below. If nothing is wrong with the profile, you think I should move from 10.3 to 10.3a? In that case, should i simply uninstall via control panel, uninstall via the driver setup, or uninstall via a 3rd party program (if so what program would you recommend)...

    Fix for 5xxx series multiple-monitor flashing using 2D desktop apps

    I tried doing this fix, but it looks like only my GPU clock is changing, while my edits to my Memory Clock don't seem to be applied at all. CCC just says Current Mem is 600 and refuses to change no matter what number I put in for Want_0. Have they removed the ability to alter the 2D clocks or...
