I tried what you told me to but that didnt work, i just opened my case up and noticed the fans on the second gpu arent even spinning, im going to take it out to check if theirs a wire that came off somewhere

or is this a software problem

If the computer is in 2D mode this is normal if you have ULPS enabled, the second gpu literally turns itself off including the fans.

Disable ULPS in afterburner restart and the fans will start spinning, slowly at idle.

Only just started so I'll let you know.

I've just discovered the Dying Light manager which allows you to tweak settings so I'm currently playing with that and trying to turn off all the horrid image blurring that this game suffers from. Hurts my eyes!

I love Dead Island though, so I'll expect I'll like this.

yeh it could have done with a ton of more ingame options that actually did something lol i liked a lot of how far i played yeh
the side missions i didnt find totally boring and the crafting system better than farcry4 for sure! i played it mostly co-op so didnt get long into the story yet

there's been atleast 1 update since i tried it last so wondering if it plays any better
been getting into HOTS a bit more so my free time has gone there :(

that sorted that problem -) i can control my fans now, if i have upls enabled will my customer fan profile kick in during gaming?

Tomb raider wont allow me to run exclusive full screen as it says problem initiating dx11 in current system config, however i had that before so its not gpu related

Crysis 3 ran flawlessly though (i can max it out on 1440p with 8x msaa and still get playable frames) and im going to test your fc4 profile out soon

Thanks for your assistance

Edit: lol, you just turned AFR on XD

Glad to hear it, sir.

Perhaps a fresh windows install may fix your long standing DirectX problem.

Yes your custom fan profile in afterburner should work fine, these are the settings i used to use on an older gpu. :)

Is that UHD?
What sort of VRAM usage are you getting? Is this another game for the 8GB cards at UHD/4K?

3840x2160, 4K, UHD whichever you want to call it. I call it 2160P or 4K, but I know real 4K is 4xxx something.

Not sure if TinyPic have resized and butchered that image, as it seems to be shrunk on my screen.

Think i need to invest in a 4k monitor

Which one do you all use and are they any good?

I'm using this one, but i will be giving it to the girlfriend once i can get my hands on a 4K FreeSync panel.

It's TN panel, not bad at all but looking forward to getting something a bit better. :)

I have dying light and it doesn't run too well at 1080p for me :( Maybe the new drivers will help

60 fps v sync on (obviously) but does drop down to about 40 or so in fighting or large areas, on ultra this is, everything max. lowered the AA and stuff, works fine
