Sapphire Radeon HD 5870 1GB in CrossFire Tested

Sep 23 2009, 9:05am CDT | by Luigi Lugmayr

AMD unveiled the new ATI Radeon HD 5800 series earlier today. We already published a HD 5870 Review Round-Up.
Tweaktown tested the new ATI Radeon HD 5870 also in Crossfire setup.
Quote from the review: "We're not going to blabber on too much here, because we're sure you don't want to read about us having two HD 5870s. You just want to know what happens when we put those two HD 5870s into the one system and run our flurry of benchmarks.
I have to say, over the past few releases we've had the ability to do Crossfire testing at launch, but the drivers haven't been ready from ATI. To be honest, when it came to these drivers we weren't sure if it was going to work, but with our cards installed and the drivers installed we were greeted with a window that told us that Crossfire could be enabled once we had rebooted."
