True about changing cards, but i fancy something new to mess about with m. Also may upgrade to a 27" monitor soon.

If you gonna run sli then a 100Hz+ monitor will be most useful. I somehow feel that I'm wasting energy drawing 140+ frames when my monitor only displays 60hz. (I always turn v syn off because it effect's game play detrimentally).

Could try capping fps instead?
Anyway, that extra grunt comes in handy for turning up the settings on other demanding titles that won't run at those kind of speeds.

I would be pretty concerned about BSOD's. I would think that is more your computer than the game to be honest.

Yep, this game is good at exposing a weak oc. Had to bump vcore a bit due to 0x124 bsods.
Thats definately a possibility. But my overclock is usually rock solid stable. It just seems last night was laggy, buggy and just generally unstable. If it BS-OD again tonight then I'll take the cpu to 1.53v. (But I still think most of the problems stem from the game itself)
The game produced min fps 49 (Crossfire), which is less than what a single card can produce so something was wrong.

Got my 780 in today. All installed and ready to run. Will do a few benchmarks on bf4 to see how it compares to 670 sli. Card boosts to 1097 mhz at stock.

I can't use Fraps in BF4 anymore. It makes it instantly crash D:

Same here, every time i had fraps running i just got a bf4 stopped responding error when trying to join a game.

Yep same 
And if I run it mid game it crashes too

The bf4 dev team probably have the same level of intelligence as the people that appear on jeremy kyle.
Want to bench my new card but bf4 and fraps say no.

You have so many pc problems mate im expecting to see you on Jeremy Kyle any day now.
My PC seems to fall apart as I sleep
The frame pacing problem I have is really strange. With frame pacing on my games are all stuttery and fps is lower too.
I turned it off for the first time earlier and played some Paracel Storm; my fps rarely dipped below 100 and my GPU usage was ~90%. Seems a big improvement, though I've never benched that map before.

Have you guys tried between the 64bit and 32bit versions?? don't know if it's me but the 32bit EXE seems to run a bit smoother.
Anyone's thoughts

I reckon it will have 5-7fps better mins compared to a single overclocked 680? Keep us posted Setter.
Do anyone else experience 100% cpu usage when the game loads up?

I thought the same as you. When I put my second card in I had frame pacing turned off and thought it was pretty good. Just recently I switched to frame pacing (I think Matt said its the best option) and sometimes it stutters, but this may be server related. I suppose use what gives the best performance in game. I'll swith FP off tonight and see if it helps. Might be a placebo improvement effect.

Need to get fraps working with bf4 so u can bench it properly. But so far it plays very nicely. Noticed that a lot of my big cpu spikes seem to be lag related.
or have I not understand the issue?
Caporegime
Will try that mate. Yesterday with fraps open, every server i tried to join resulted in bf4 stopped responding error. Ive yet to try clocking the card yet but it feels a good bit smoother. One 670 sold, just need to get shot of the second to fund the purchase of another 780. Hoping my psu is upto the job.

My RM850 didn't bat an eyelid at trifire, so I reckon you shouldn't have problem.
