ATI Radeon HD 4870 X2 - R700 Preview: AMD's Fastest Single Card

Crysis Performance
Simply because it is Crysis, we must take a look at performance. And in this case, R700 performed right on point with 4870 in CrossFire.
Unfortunately, CrossFire leaves a lot to be desired in terms of multi-GPU performance scaling under Crysis. SLI scales much better, but the fact that R700 performs identically to 4870 in CrossFire means that it is at least significantly faster than a single GTX 280. Which isn't shabby.
