Two R700s Churn-out X12515 in 3DMark Vantage
AMD, Austin have managed a benchmark score of X12515 in the 3DMark Vantage benchmark using two Radeon HD4870 X2 cards in CrossfireX, a feat that takes three GeForce GTX 280 cards in 3-way SLI to achieve. The R700 boards were clocked at 778 MHz core, while the GDDR5 memory was clocked at 980 MHz QDR (effectively 3.92 GHz). This brings the total on-board video bandwidth to a stellar 250.8 GBps.With inputs from TG Daily

AMD really are on a roll. Considering only nvidia chipsets support CF, well..... Nvidia is going to go flying downhill
My 3 9800GTX cards murder that score

ah I see now lol new to vantage
GPU 6052
CPU 40461
two r700 together is twice as fast.
Don't you guys think AMD will get spanked again as soon as the x2 version of the 280 comes out?
if nvidia decide to phase out the 9800/9600s, that will be their doom.
2 ATI chps size equals one size of nvidia chip
again, just a benchmark, but one hellova benchmark!
the money saved in getting 2 4870x2's compared to 3 280's is stellar, you could buy a killer mainboard for that and probs some decent ram, lol...
