February 3, 201115 yr I'm a little confused about how are multi gpu classified. If you sumbit a score with let's say, a 5970 (2 cores) and a 5870 (1 core) how do you classify that? 3 5870, 2 5970 or 2 5870? Thanks in advance for the clarification.
February 3, 201115 yr I disagree personally, core for core 5870 is the more powerful card, and there are only three cores where 2x5970 would be four. That's just me, though.
February 4, 201115 yr yeah the gpu of the 5870 is mire powerful than a gpu of the 5970, but as at the moment hwbot doesn t support multi mixed gpu the rule is to submite with X x best card. X is the number of physical graphic cards. And here the best card is the 5970. But yeah logically he can submite as 3 x 5870 but the 5870 has to be the main card(the card plugged to the monitor). For a 3 x GPU result. Now I dont know if it perform better than 3 physical 5870, if no maybe he can, if yes NO. Now we have to wait for Massman advice. And BTW, does ATI drivers support those cards mixed in crossfire ? I have a blackout Edited February 4, 201115 yr by Christian Ney powerest doesnt exist
February 4, 201115 yr 3x 5870 is most logical. In the past, this kind of setup was considered as 2x 5970 because the HWBOINT algorithm was based on #cards, not #cores.
February 4, 201115 yr thx Massman, But as the 5870 be the main card ?(the one plugged to the monitor) ? cause I know that is some 3D bench a dual gpu card perform better than 2 x a single card.(same gpu for all of them). Edited February 4, 201115 yr by Christian Ney
February 4, 201115 yr Author So that submission: http://hwbot.org/community/submission/2117961_vanovich_unigine_heaven___xtreme_preset_dx11_2x_radeon_hd_5870_2190.16_dx11_marks should be in the 3x 5870 category right?
February 4, 201115 yr Author I don't want to sound like an ass since I have the second score... will it be seen that way?
February 4, 201115 yr no, no, he has got a wrong score. So you are not going to be an ass , but if you want I can do it for you it's not a problem EDIT: done, and btw already reported 2 times
February 4, 201115 yr np. If you are 80 % sure that a score is wrong, feel free to report and write 1-2 lignes to explain why
February 8, 201115 yr On my screen it has been edited and now it's in the 3x GPU Ho you have still the silver cup, just a sec.... EDIT: Now it's ok, you have your gold cup back
