Hi all,
Ive just bought a new setup which involves the following:

i5 2500k @ 4.4Ghz
8GB Corsair Vengance 1600Mhz 7-8-7-24 1T
Asus P8P67 PRO Mobo
750W OCZ Psu
2 x MSI 2GB Afterburner 6950 GPU Crossfire

The problem im having is that in Catalyst Control Centre it picks up my second card as 0C Temp, 0% Activity, GPU Clock 000Mhz, Memory Clock 000MHz. I try adjusting the fan speed in the overdrive section and it does not do anything. However it picks up my primary card just fine.
However when i run 3d mark 11 the perfomance is about 85% higher then with a single GPU so the crossfire obviously works. I have the latest catalyst drivers installed. Ive tried GPU Z and it does pick both cards up fine. Is it just a bug with CCC???

Any ideas how to rectify this problem as it is slightly bugging me :)

Thanks for reading :)

If it is performing in benchmarking and other areas then the X-fire is working. I noticed the same thing in CCC but it was the only one reporting that way. Afterburner, GPU-Z and everything else was reporting correctly.
