So I am running a 5970 in my spec and cannot use fullscreen due to the large decrease in performance (pseudo fps 40-60/fullscreen fps 15-30).

I thought I would create a poll to determine what experience other sli/crossfire users are experiencing.

PLEASE LEAVE A POST STATING WHICH TYPE YOU USE, THANKS.
XFX 5970 BE 2gb, not overclocked despite the card having plently of potential as this does not seem to improve performance. No discernable difference between full-screen or psuedo (since last two patches) but I have v-sync on. X-fire display shows approx 30% on both GPUs.

After many many hours of testing i'll share my settings, which might be useful for those with similar hardware; i7 930@4ghz 6gb ram, opsys and game installed on SSD. Win 7, Catalyst 11.7.

I currently believe the best settings for me are;

Game settings; everything on full except SSAO and AA@ 2X, building detail and forest medium. Resolution set to 1776/1000@24fps (which subjectively looks great on my screen). I get no micro-stutters and really enjoy playing the game especially using some of the greatly appreciated work of campaign and mission builders. I turn off trees for on-line play and am only rarely troubled by sound bug.
