| Re: * ati 5870..... * I'm no longer running CrossFire. One card went south on me. So I had 30 day return, returned it for a refund. I'm running the one card I have now 5870, water cooled. Here's a screen shot of my settings.....

| Re: * ati 5870..... * I was running AMD oc tool, now I'm back to running the whole ATI Cat suite, newest drivers. I can get a 900/1300 oc with the ATI overdrive. With this oc I can run 24/7 so its good enough for me.

| Re: * ati 5870..... * Skully can you run Vantage on performance mode at default setting? I was wondering how my score holds up against yours, I know my cpu score will be way lower but I want to see the gpu scores, from what I've seen mine is in the ballpark!
