Nice... Shows you how well designed the Crossfire platform is, in that the x850XT is slower than a 6800, but dual to dual, it outperforms SLI.

Imagine the benchmarks if you could overclock the x850 upto near the 6800 ultra, and the run them in Crossfire mode.

The question is, when Richard gets this setup, could he finally run Call Of Duty?

I wouldnt call the difference between the scores sticking two fingers up... but like punky said, theyve done something right....... If the 6800 Ultra is that much better than the 850xt on its own... and 2 xt's beat 2 6800 Ultra's then ATI's route of doing dual cards must be much better......

Dunno where you got that idea from, the X850XT PE is the fastest card available, beating the 6800 Ultra in the majority of games.
