oooh, looks like you've got a bad GPU, send that thing back if you can, she's burned up.

3D Mark only detects 32 mb because it's 32mb each on two seperate GPUs, many programs experience this error. Is this issue specific to certain types of games, or is it all of them?

Spectrobozo,
Go into your advanced settings, and set your FSAA level to 'single chip only' and see if there is any differnce in frame rates on the v5. If there is NO differnce, then amp_man is right, and one of your gpu's is cactus....[:(]

the "fps" have dirence.

but in single chip in moto gp2 no have bugs in image and with normal have a little bugs.

in GTA3 single chip run without bugs, dual chip +  "trails" efect run like 1fps. i quake 3 dual chip run well 80fps +-, an single run at 46fps +- (in de max setings).

one GPU is "crashed"?
