Not that it matters for this test >.>

As far as I know only one GPU will be used by Dolphin, unfortunately. No SLI/Crossfire is supported.

I am sorry to say you are wrong sir. In Windwaker, at the beginning island, I used a single gpu and would get 5 less fps. Then I turned on the crossfire and got full fps everywhere. I have no clue if all gpu's crossfired work with Dolphin, but mine 100% do. I've also tested the crossfire with Twilight Princess and I am able to use anti-aliasing at 3x native resolution because of it.

That is what we like to call...a coincidence

He's correct . Dolphin doesn't support SLI/Crossfire , Dual GPU

Your 6790 alone can handle 4x IR or higher just fine . If 1 6790 can't , there is sth wrong with your system....
5770 also handle 3xIR + 4xSSAA on some games or 4x IR on most games

Yeah

For the sake of further testing you could use GPU-Z to monitor the clock speeds of both cards, maybe when using a single card it was idle but switching both on forced it to wake up.

Crossfire won't increase your performance by 500% even if it were working. That's impossible. Clearly something is wrong with the system. I'm willing to bet Zee530 is correct.

Some clock for clock comparison. 4670k and e6850 both at 3ghz

e6850 3ghz

Conroe benchmarks!

I am happy.

So is it ok for me to benchmark my laptop if I dial down the IR so my igpu isn't bottlenecking?
Edit: Will the results still be valid if I change the IR lower.

This is a CPU benchmark, so tinkering with a GPU bottleneck should be OK
