Yet again tree you are jumping to conclusions, perhaps the method at which the filter was applied has messed up the sli/xfire, so just hold your horses and at least wait for the first patch.

Myself and anybody that has a 5970, 6990 or a 590 are in a far worse predicament than someone like yourself, at least you can turn off your sli.

Also there is a thread for bugs so there is no need to create a new thread, stop throwing your toys out the pram.

P.s. If on Friday I do have a problem I will be starting my own whine thread.

No toys or conspiracy, I am merely asking the questions. :grin:

Any SLI performance increase will also depend on whether the game is CPU- or GPU-bound from what I understand.

I'll upgrade but not sure yet whether it will be a new CPU or another GTX480 - just have to wait for a patch or two to get the real picture (no pun intended...) but that's no problem.

No new CPU,new GPU, it's GPU game.

Thanks - how do you know though?

S!

At least for AMD it would possibly require a profile to get XFire working at best performance in a title thus they release Application Profiles. Now there is the feedback channel to AMD driver team if you use XFire in Cliffs and get low performance. They did sort out IL-2 issues via that ;)

Also considerwith the patches that have been talked about so there might be light at the end of the tunnel :) Cliffs is the first title ever I have considered to be worth CrossFire, if it works and gives me a gain in performance.

Yesterday I tested.

What are your system specs?

Yes, Nvidia do the same for SLI but you can also make your own application profiles. It is tedious to optimise, though.

+1, certainly light at the end of the tunnel.

Seeing as this on the top of the board, where did you get the idea for your concern over SLI support Tree UK? After all the possible problems that you`ve raised, and you did`nt think of this one till now.
Too bad someone else already raised it but in a completely different manner and intention.
And what have you achieved? Where are the results?
