My latest Nv Profile

RickRuski · #1 10-13-2012, 12:09 AM

Here's a copy of the latest Nvidia Inspector profile that I'm using. The latest patch that I am using is beta 20172. I'm using this in conjunction with EVGA Precision Tool to balance the different cards that I use (1 x EVGA, 1 x Asus). I have also found that by using the fps limiter built into this tool, most of the stutters that I have been experiencing have disappeared.

There are no changes to the profile below screen 2.

I have not at this stage applied the latest patch dated October 12th.

Edit: - Here's a forum that may help those that are having trouble setting up their Sli, this give specifics on how to do it with Nvidia control panel and how to check if it is running correctly.

You don't need to balance cards, nvidia automatically forces both card to run at the same spec (lowest) when SLI is in enabled

Yes rObc, I realise that but both my cards are factory o/c and I have taken them back to standard clocks and voltages.

Silly question
Why?

Less stress, cooler running. Don't know what sort of temps your card(s) are running at but currently prior to the latest patch both my cards are running at about 35% use and temps in the 40--45Deg range, pc runs cooler and quieter. Plus the demand on my 1gb cards is also down from normally running near max to about 80% V/ram demand (this has a lot to do with fps limiting). I've just been trying different things to get the best results I can until we get an official profile from nvidia, and by the sounds of Luthiers last post that may be still some time away seeing it won't happen until the final release goes to Steam.

im using a little of yours and a little of the one they posted fps locked at 60

Hi Pegasus,

Your 2 x 570's are good cards and shouldn't have any trouble with 60fps, my 2 x Gts 450's will run those fps but not without increased stutters. Got my fps locked at 35fps, that is giving me much better results from what i was getting. I've just downloaded the latest patch and will try to find some time to instal it over the weekend. Will wait and see what results I get.

I'd never do that unless it was overheating and locking up or something., even then I'd just RMA it.
80% plus use and temps around 90 Deg with GTX 480's....I couldn't care less if it burns down the house....if it was going to it would have by now.
Your using 450s...you need every frame you can squeeze out of them.
