I'd like to know how your multi-GPU setup performs in Guild Wars, whether you have multiple cards or a single-PCB solution. And please, no cheating by setting GW to run with only one GPU

Kamadan fluctuates greatly - from high 40s to over 100 depending on how much is happening around my char. Outside the city FPS is 300+ on avg.

2 x HD4850 512mb in CrossfireX
XP Home
4GB DDR2 1066 (ok 3.2 lol)
AMD Phenom II x4 940 Deneb Quad Core 3.0 ghz
22" LCD 1920 x 1080 resolution


*I actually got better overall FPS in Kamadan with 1 GPU (rarely dropped below 60) but the outside FPS never hit 300+ either...*

Kamadan and walking outside of the cave in DoA is really the only time i will drop below 60 fps. But normally i wont ever drop below 60 fps with Vsync turned on.

2 x GTX 295s in Sli
Vista Ultimate
12g ddr3
i7 920 oc'd 3.4 daily oc

I really dont think that it would ever go below 100 with 2 295s.

80-100 in major towns, 250-300 everywhere else. Havent really played much GW with the new comp tho.

i7 920 @ 3.8 24/7

Yeah i leave Vsync turned on though, its a habit. Besides anything over like 60 fps is a waste anyway imo. Only makes the camera rotate faster.

and now from the other end of the spectrum: hybrid crossfireX on the computer i built for my mom.

AMD athlon II x2 240
asus 780g chipset
4gb ddr2-800 RAM
onboard HD3200
discrete HD2400PRO
1680x1050 resolution

at max settings (no AA), GW runs between 40 to 70 fps. with hybrid crossfireX turned off, GW runs between 15 to 40 fps. so yes, effectively double performance.

this is purely for testing purposes... and might come in handy if friends come over to play.
