That's probably because they are less demanding than CoD. I believe their flight and damage models are a lot simpler.

We don't really know how long it will take to get CoD into a version good enough online, but it hasn't even been released outside of Russia yet, and it appears there have been comments from the developers stating that some of the issues should be fixed within the next couple of weeks.

You might want to do a little checking before saying that. I don't have DCS A10 or RoF, but FSX is certainly using my two GPUs in crossfire.

Okay, this one's a bugger.

As a 'real' flightsimmer (MSFS MMO; IVAO), I must say, that this was kind of careless development. Most of the real flightsimmers (as opposed to 'arcade kids' or 'blue jeans pilots') have extraordinarily good machines. Many are employing SLI/crossfire technology, and many are using Matrox triplehead oder eyefinity setups, along with expensive sticks, rudders, and headtrackers. This is not a secret. I just don't get why SLI/crossfire can get through to the final product without any testing ...

Luckily, I have a second machine with a single GPU. But not everybody can afford a downgrade

This is not about the game supporting SLI/crossfire but about bad performance due to a multi GPU setup. It just shouldn't be like that.

but after reading that the epilepsy filter problem was resolved in favor of the community, I am quite convinced that there will be a fix for this problem, too.

Xfire and SLI may be the future of high grades PC...The GTX590 and 6990
are in fact Xfire and SLI on the same motherboard....
As a exemple,you can get today 2X560ti OC for $500.00 and get better performances than a GTX580 at the same price...And you can add a third one if you wish...
Anyway...Ruling out any technology from a brand new engine that is built for the future is a big risk...It may work, but it may also fail by comparison in the near future with more current and high-tech design...

Salute !

Well what happens with my setup is that now I´m selling my two ATI 5770´s at a crazy cheap prize to get myself a 6950 2GB and bios upgrade it to 6970 2GB because I can´t stand looking at ugly graphics. 5770 is a mediocore card that is about the same as 4870 but newer, so I´m basicly running DX11 version of 4870X2 with less memory. If I CF those two 5770 and OC them mildly it will give many newer cards a run for its money but not with ROF or COD , my only two games I want to play nowadays. CF works in almost all the games that I have, so I have now been used to run everything on max settings. I just can´t stand the idea that I would have to run COD on low settings.
