Performance at 1,680x1,050 and 1,920x1,200 is just where we would expect it to be. However, the 2,560x1,600 result exemplifies the potential 'problem' that the cards face when overloaded with data. We reckon that it's more of a driver issue than anything else, because a 512MB-equipped Radeon HD 4870 does a lot better here. The foibles of multi-GPU usage, eh?
