SLI Help needed

[Metalface Mark]

Ive just got a couple of 7800GT's, but sli isnt working properly, it says its all configured properly, however im only getting 15500 3dmarks in 2003.

Both cards are BFG7800GT OC's, Sli is enabled, but its obviously not showing in the benchmarks.

Any ideas?

3dmark2003 doesn't appear to give me much of an increase for SLI, however I do get a lot more than that.

What's your entire system specs, and what driver revision are you on?

Are you sure you have AA and AF disabled? What about vsync?

Try 3DMark2005/6 and come back with those scores.

check in the nvidia control panel - performance & quality settings, there should be an option in the advanced settings menu entitled SLI Rendering Method.

If it is set to Single GPU Rendering then I suspect that would be the cause of your issue - change it to Alternate Frame Rendering, or use coolbits for a few more options to play about with

Appears one of the cards is dead, booted it as a master and the displays all garbled.

nightmare mate, will you be able to rma it / use your warranty?

Mite be worth trying it in a different mnachine if you can but at least BFGs have a lifetime warranty.
