When I play Bad Company 2, I get stuttering when I play in crossfire mode UNLESS v-sync is on (this causes FPS drops during explosions and other quick intense moments). I am not really looking for a way to fix this but can someone explain why? Motherboard Crosshair IV Formula Processor AMD...

Hello, I was wondering if my CPU is bottlenecking my 5870's. I actually get a FPS reduction and/or stutter in many games I play. The only games that I have had improvement with were Dirt 3, Shogun 2, and Empire Total War. I could overclock my CPU a bit more but I will need some cooling...

I'm having trouble understanding this: A Black Edition CPU is a CPU that has an unlocked multiplier, meaning you can either raise or lower the multiplier, this guide is covering overclocking the CPU by raising the multiplier. The critical aspect of raising an AMD CPU multiplier is to keep...

Hi, I recently upgraded by build and added an extra XFX 5870 to run in crossfire. I have not noticed a performance difference at all for high-demanding games such as Crysis. When I run it in 64-bit I get an average of 25 FPS when without the extra card I get about 45 FPS. In source games...

I wanted to upgrade my build so I got myself a crosshair IV formula, a TX950 watt, and a second 5870. I setup everything, good to go, and when I switch on my pc it turns on it powers up but there is abolutely no signal going to the monitor. I have tried switching ram positions, switching...
