    Hey all,

    As I was just updating my signature, I noticed in my CPU-Z validation that my crossfire isn't working properly. I bought the second card last year and didn't really notice a big jump in performance although I wasn't sure how much I should anyway. Looking at the validation now though, it looks like the old, original card is only running at a fraction of what it should be i.e. the core is at 156MHz and the RAM is at 300MHz whereas they should be at 850MHz and 1200MHz respectively.

    I have also checked an older CPU-Z valuidataion and it is showing the same values. Anyone have any ideas what could be wrong?

    Thanks,

    It's normal for the card to downclock when not playing games.

    Download gpu-z and watch a video on youtube or something.. the speed should go up

    Really? Cool, I'll check that out and post again if there is still a problem.

    Thanks!
