So SLI doesn't work too well in this game then ? I was getting just 54% GPU usage on both cards and when I turned off SLI that went up to 96% and the scores were only just shy of the two card scores.

stooeh · 31 Jul 2015 at 19:55

Yeah the default SLI profile is very poor and scaling is non existent at certain parts of the game. At 4K this meant 40fps in places for me :mad:

I had a look online and found some info that fixes the scaling but may produce some graphical anomalies in places(?)

Change SLI compatibility bits (DX1x) to 0x0C0080F5 then also change shadowmap resolution 2048 line to <Quality name="4096" int="4096" precedence="4"> in the engine_settings.xml file.

Thanks a lot stooeh, I'll have go with that and see the results are. It's odd that this hasn't been set already as the game's been out a while now. Are there any similar tweaks for Star Citizen, that's another dog when it comes to SLI?

Hammerark · 1 Aug 2015 at 12:42

Wow, what a difference a tweak makes.

Previous 3440x1440 average with small OC was :

154.56

Average after applying the tweak that Stooeh posted for SLI.

193.06

Kaapstad · 1 Aug 2015 at 15:28

Scoreboard updated.

Scougar · 2 Aug 2015 at 04:43

Even at stock, and with increased voltage and power limits, according to MSI Afterburner my gpu speed is throttling which seems REALLY odd to me.

EDIT: Seems I was wrong, it was vsync that seems to be limiting the clock speed rather than it throttling. Re-ran the Alien Isolation bench with vsync off and got almost double the frame rate and no apparently declocks (beyond small glitches).

For the scoreboard this (ShadowMapResolution=4096) needs to be 2048.

That's ok Kaapstad, I posted more so as a reference rather than to get on the board.

Isn't the 4096 Shadowmap resolution more demanding than the 2048 though, out of curiosity ?

I am not really sure what it does but I have seen some nice scores using it.
