Is there an Elite Dangerous crossfire profile yet?

I'm wondering whether to invest in a HOTAS and get the game, but if it's not going to work on eyefinity (I assume 1 card won't be enough for 3 screens) then I'll keep waiting...

I wouldn't wait mate they is clearly something wrong. A guy on here posted other day saying just how bad sli is also. It would seem the engine is just not very good with sli

SLI ran really well for me when I was using SLI. I guess a lot of PEBKAC is going on.

Shanks, that link relates to a different bug and has nothing to do with SLI to be fair.

There is an issue at present affecting some AMD and Nv users, on Windows 10, but it's not SLI / crossfire specific. SLI has been working for nearlly a full year and continues to do so.

Well they is a lot of replies on that thread so meny with the issue.. So yeah you can guess what you want.

You think its still user issue when a user gets a reply from a dev saying.
"Hi CMDR,

I just wanted to get back to you and let you know that I believe a fix has been found and will be heading out in one of the patches coming soon

Woo! Thanks for the videos and in-depth description, massively helpful.

Fly safe, Commander!"

The video thanks goes out to Horizone!

The issue with SLi and Crossfire with FPS drops was long reported to be either a Windows 10 issue or Multi GPU issue.. It turns out the same issue was also happening on Single GPU.. Its one reason for that thread mate..

Just checked and it is to do with Supercruise and nothing to do with SLI/CF lmao.

They is working to fix the Supercruise bug that has slow downs happening.

Would you mind pointing out all the posts from people with sli issues please.

As there seems to be so many - wait - not one post about sli issues.

Most are from single card users.

Also the reply you posted relates to what exactly?

Horizones uses a single 980ti.

It wouldn't hurt you to admit when you are wrong. This is what gets people's backs up.

Ok am wrong you right, now thread back on topic.. Wouldn't want this going on and on now would we?

Thread was on topic and a guy was asking about Elite Dangerous having a Crossfire profile.

But it is seemingly taking a long time and those who have custom voltage unlocked haven't seen much gain, even on LN2, so don't hold your breath guys.

Agree with this, Trixx with the VC is still MIA, was supposed to be out ages ago that thing, so somethings got to be up, if it ever comes, im feeling a massive, massive letdown.

I've found an issue with Fallout 4 and the 15.11 beta driver. I upgraded a gun and gave it a scope so it's like a sniper rifle. Now when I try to use it 80% of the time it crashes with either a "The driver stopped responding" message or it freezes forcing a reboot.

Matson · 13 Nov 2015 at 19:46

Pointless me saying this but I do hope we get a crossfire driver for Battlefront next week.

LoadsaMoney · 13 Nov 2015 at 19:58

Id be very surprised, should be an AMD game being Dice.

Crossfire worked OK for me during the Beta for Battlefront playing at 4K so I wouldn't worry too much.

You could probably just use the BF Hardline profile as it's the same engine. From what you're saying maybe it already has one?

Panos · 15 Nov 2015 at 20:07

I am annoyed with AMD.
Almost 6 months and they haven't fixed the issued with the vertical lines on the 295X2 on 15.11, having stuck with the 15.6 all this time.

If I didn't had the Freesync monitor, or Nvidia was supporting adaptive sync via DP, I could have sold it and bought a 980Ti. Just for the sake of it.
