ATI CrossFireX Preview – Triple CrossFire Benchmarking

3DMark 2006

3DMark 2006

3DMark 06 is the worldwide standard in advanced 3D game performance benchmarking and the latest version in the popular 3DMark series! 3DMark06 tests include all new HDR/SM3.0 graphics tests, advanced SM2.0 graphics tests, AI and physics driven single and multiple cores or processor CPU tests and a collection of comprehensive feature tests to reliably measure next generation gaming performance today.

Benchmark Results: The overall 3DMark06 score jumped up over 17,000, which is an increase of ~5% over that of the pair of Radeon HD 3870’s in CrossFire. The Shader Model 2.0 scores seem to have leveled off at 6400 3dmarks, which might mean we are being limited by something like the CPU.
