SLI users- disable SLI with new patch

[pstyle]

if you get the crash on load, disable SLI in your GPU drivers.

[Red Dragon-DK]

Had the same issus.

Yes, and I now have two monitors doing nothing...:mad:

With AMD graphic cards it is the same problem and crossfire so say most of users if you look in other post in forums...I hope next patch follow and correct this? But even without SLI I have a big incrase of min fps in test over London! Nice.:cool:

S!

Really a shame that SLI/CrossFire is more trouble than worth :( Last time I had a WORKING configuration with 2 cards was when using a pair of 3Dfx Voodoo II for playing EAW and others..:D

[RickRuski]

I for one will definitely will not buy the sequel now without proof that they have fixed and got working Sli. This patch is a joke, Luthier stated that Sli would be in the next patch (or that is how I read it). But what happens, they put in a plane that has no relevance to the Battle of Britain and releases a patch that for us that use Sli/Crossfire results in a CTD. For me this is just about the end of the road if they don't get things right with the next Steam release, and I don't mean having to buy the sequel to achieve that.

With previous patch of COD SLI did work fine without trouble and impoved fps a little 5 to 10% of min rating not of max.

I have crossfire and noticed that if CoD is the first game that i load i have black screen but if i have previously loaded another game i have no problems

Good find, Tony! What is the previous game, or does it matter? I'm not suggesting that everyone with Crossfire/SLI run out and buy another game just to get their systems working, but sometimes a discovery like yours can lead to an easy fix by the devs, especially if your work around can be reproduced by other players on THEIR systems.

A game using crossfire

[ATAG_Snapper]

A game using crossfire

OK.

I've posted this over at the ATAG Server forum. Perhaps someone here or over there can check if Crossfire or SLI works with the 1.09 beta after first starting, then exiting another such game first.

Not on mine, thanks for the suggestion though.

SLI worked well on my rig before this patch, the performance is still good on a single GPU but I don't like running one GPU hot while another idles. With SLI I was getting 50 to 60c with about the same usage. Now one core runs at 80c, which is safe but hotter than I would like.

Well, that's why I asked TonyR "which game(s)" -- perhaps there's something in the specific titles that positively affects the SLI/Crossfire configuation in CoD while orther titles don't. Why might this be? Don't know, just "empirically-speaking".

I don't run SLI/Crossfire, but I hope a solution is found for those of you who do.

Seems like the SLI poll has been disregarded. :(

[RickRuski]

Just shows how good their in-house testing is. This is a real problem for users of Sli/Crossfire. If this is supposed to be a testing phase for us to find the final bugs, good try guys. 2/10 marks, and I think that's generous.

Thanks, TonyR!

[He111]

UG!! this quite ironic as I'm currently playing a 2006 game that has SLI running perfectly .. :confused:

[RickRuski]

Tony R,

You say that you have it running ok now if you go and start a game that uses Crossfire prior to C.o.D., are both your cards running evenly or is one on idle??. In other words are both cards being used or is your system self adjusted to disable Crossfire for C.o.d.??

It certainly doesn't work that way for Sli.

[JG52Krupi]

Crossfire is fine, as far as I can tell SLI is the only one affected... But they did say the patch was going to be reviewed by nvidia or something like that..

EDIT...

2) Will the next patch be fully NVidia certified, and will it have Crossfire support?
NVidia – definitely. CF – still TBD.

Both card runs

SLI sure don't work here..same as always

[RickRuski]

If the team knew that Sli wasn't going to work with the latest beta because of Nvidia doing their thing for it, why were't we advised of the fact in the release notes from Luthier??
