Just installed another GTX 460 in SLI - at last I can fly properly

Are you saying the only thing you did is enable SLI in the Nvidia control panel?

Certainly did. How do I bring up my FPS?

[r0bc]

That don't enable SLI..... COD don't have a SLI profile.

Just use Afterburner or Precision you'll see your FPS but it'll also see your second card doing nothing.

Sorry r0bc, just remembered seeing this after making my post above. Great minds think alike!

Hurricanedriver, sticking in a 2nd video card, connecting the SLI connector, then simply clicking on "enable SLI" in the Nvidia Control Panel won't get you there with CoD, unfortunately. It SHOULD -- but it won't. Take r0bc's suggestion and download the Precision EVGA monitoring utility. It's free, installs easily, and instantly tells you what your cards are doing performance-wise and temperature-wise. Otherwise, you're tuning up a car with no tachometer!

Next, download Nvidia Inspector (another free utility, bless 'em all). This will tweak the SLI settings for "launcher.exe" (which just happens to be the executable file that launches Cliffs of Dover via Steam). With the tweaks done in Nvidia Inspector the two video cards you've spent the big bucks on will start doing what they're supposed to: split the workload for increased overall performance!

You've come this far: finish the race!

A sign of activity isn't a sign of good functioning.
So stop saying "it's working! it's working!" because SLI at the moment work in an awful way, like a car out of gear at 10 000 rpm.
At the moment everybody should disable sli, because sli gives you few more fps with a consumption of about 300w, which is an insult to the planet earth.
Nvidia, 1c and devs will never fix it and all of you saying that sli is working help them hiding their head in the sand.
We all know how to enable sli and look at its uselessness.

Repeat, please.

What specific tweaks are you talking about? I have 2 460s and nothing worked for me in Inspector because the developers broke support and stated this fact in April. Can you unbreak support for SLI? I don't know...doesnt sound like you could

All I know is I have 2 460s and Im a huge tweaker/optimizer. SLI is not working to potential. (although I get better results with it enabled, my second card is only at 10% using MSI afterburner to monitor )

getting 35-45 fps and am pretty happy after the new patch

Thanks for the info - had a week of long hours at work and haven't had the opportunity for doing much else! Taken your advice and grabbed both utilities. In Nvidia Inspector how do I tweak the SLI settings for the COD launcher? I don't see any tabs in NI to do that....
