Re: Is it somehow also bad news for AMD that Crossfire x 3 works and SLI x 3 doesn't?

If the performance gains are due to Triple-Crossfire then that might be worth $1 million extra in net income to AMD a quarter. If the performance gains are due to K10 that might eventually be worth $400 million a quarter. Which news would you rather have?

Re: By the way, the guy who managed to hit 3DMARK06 of 27,039 (90% of the AMD score) had his two HD2900XT cards clocked 42% higher than the AMD system.

Without a more direct and documented comparison, I'm not going to proclaim the case either way. However, I will say that the comparison made by the Inquirer, and the one which is now a subject of much debate on this forum, wasn't exactly apples to apples, and far from a compelling proof point of K10 performance.
