Setting up Sli

[RickRuski]

Hi Jimbop,

I have just updated to the latest Beta Nvidia drivers and find very little difference for me from the previous version. What I asked you for was your personal settings in "Inspector" and "Nvidia Control Panel" not your fps and ingame video settings, I wanted to have a look at what exactly you are using so that I might help you get it working more to your liking. Without that information I'm only guessing at where to start for you.
I'm running 2x gts450 Sli and have very playable frame rates with minor stutters low down over land but not bad enough to stop me enjoying the sim. It sounds like you haven't added "Launcher.exe" to your Control panel settings to match the Inspector profile, these are what I need to see to be able to help. If you are not sure how to do this ask for help, I will be very happy to. I know that the "Compatibility bits" setting refers to a Star wars setting but a lot of settings refer to multiple games. If you don't wish to try all suggested settings, then experiment with the settings yourself to try and get the best that you can. I am running all my in game video settings on High except for Building amount and Forests which are both medium, my resolution is 1280 x 960 on a 19" lcd, roads "on", Shadows "off" (find that is a big hit on fps) 2 x AA, V/S "off". Don't have any noticeable tearing, have tried it both ways and find "off" suits me better.

One thing to have a look at, in the Nvidia control panel when you set it up for Sli (I suppose you have) under the Physics settings make sure that you have CPU selected other wise one of your cards will be allocated for Physics use.

Your 2 x GTX480's should eat this sim.

Cheers
