SLI/CF is microstutter an issue for you?

Mass Effect 2/original Witcher(to name but 2) visuals were simply soo much better when you maxed out CCC visual options on 6950>70 CrossFire@1080p.

Why is it that someone who has something constructive to say gets attempted ridicule thrown at them?

/me strokes his 3GB of vram :D

One things for sure, 3Gb cuts out the 2Gb will it/won't it dilemma clean out the equation.:D
 
Ok, I'll go there.

That threads just a slaughterfest for the fanboys though.

Someone who has more knowledge than most in here on the matter said:

Taking some time to read through in a bit more detail theres some interesting technical data in there and some stuff that backs up what I've been claiming for awhile on the subject but theres also a few issues where the hardware capturing just doesn't have the granularity to tell the whole story.

Since AMD already put out their take on the matter before that report surficed, I'll wait and see as to what transpires.

Funny how no one failed to pick up this one though:

Funny that Nvidia think that people need to analyse frame rates differently, when I still get (occasionally) the stutter bug with the latest drivers in BF3.

I have turned of adaptive vysnc and so far so good. Also to my surprise I have not seen any tearing in any game I have played yet... when my monitor is very sensitive to tears.

So that's a nice surprise.

Which at the end of the day, your/my comments on this subject has zero bearing on 3Gb outlasting 2Gb on similar performing gpu's.:)
 
You are going against your signature again Tommy and only reading what you want to read. :(

I hope AMD do fix the CF issue of frame drops and runts. This thread was a good way of showing ways to sort it or highlight it but only Matt had any input and he is single card :(

where as showing that Crossfire has an effective framerate of half that of SLI 680 gets praised and welcomed? :D

ah, but is 3GB really enough

/me strokes 6GB

sorry Rusty, posting on topic is now a banable offence :D

And that will be forced to the max when these new fangled console thingys come out.

I will stick with my jubbly 6GB cards and give them a little nod when playing Crysis 3 and seeing 3.8GB of VRAM being used ;)
 
Never had or noticed any microstutter ever since the voodoo 2 days( Very first sli card) which i still have.

However i did get it with GTX 295's in SLI (Dual PCB) they ran hot, were loud and stuttered.

When the Single PCB 295's came out i bought 2 of those and they worked much better than the dual's.

This is the only time i have had microstutter.
I never get it with anygame that i play whatsoever nowadays.

As for ATI/AMD cards its been 15 years since i bought one of those and it will be another 15 years before i buy another one.
 
i had a ton of micro stutter on my 7970's, i put in a seccond CF bridge because, why not i had 2, it fixed the issue... so its either placebo effect, or the bridge was faulty, i keep the two in there now for aesthetics :)
