Just when the game ended
It's the only time my GPU usage actually goes above 50% lol
Or did you mean at the start of the graph?

No, the end..
Well, the less aid about that the better
Have you tried both cards on their own? Gotta say sli scaling is pretty good in bf4. Few benches comparing one card and two.
Single card,
Frames, Time (ms), Min, Max, Avg
58363, 600000, 54, 212, 97.272
sli,
Frames, Time (ms), Min, Max, Avg
73624, 600000, 80, 184, 122.707
Now the above isnt an ideal comparison as the single card result is at 1920x1200, whereas the sli result is at 2560x1600 using DSR. Seems that idiot that i am, i deleted my 1920x1200 sli results.

Put it on a real map, Matthew
All in good time Monsieur Pete. For now have some Mantle 4K + 200% resolution scaling (5760x3240) screenshots for your pleasure. 6.7GB's of Vram usage, but boy does it look marvelous. Serious grunt needed here, not for the faulty hearted.
Uploadng those images has used up my internet allowance for the month.

That looks superb matt, keeping not bad frame rates either considering the performance you need for such.
Yes Tom, got four 4gb versions and four 8gb versions. The 4gb versions (Hynix) are for benching and the 8gb versions (Elpida) are for 4k gaming.
So basically Matt, you have to do a partial system rebuild depending on wether you want to bench/game.
Tbh, not a bad dilema to have.
Thankfully swapping over the cards is not much of a hassle.
You're mad
Bet they're keeping you warm in this weather though.
I'd be half tempted to get a 295X2 if I could find one at a good price, just for BF4.
OcuK have one going for a decent price. Mantle is the best it's ever been on Battlefield 4 these days.
Pretty much the same it cost for my 970s. Kinda wish I had gone for that instead.
Though with the amount I would lose selling these it's probably not worth it now
Except with the new Omega drivers Matt i don't have the chance to choose it
290 tri-x Benq 2420T. No option to enable VSR either

Game is default limited to 200FPS but you can remove the limit by typing in
"gametime.maxvariablefps 0"
Quad Crossfire purring like a cat at 4K. 
I experimented with disabling HT here and actually saw gpu usage drop a little from normal, indicating that even at 4K Mantle is usually using those 16 threads to balance the cpu load.
