Why new games running half as quick in SLI

2x7800GTX x2 4400 @ 2.64 240fsb 1:1

Company of Heroes: SLI= min 14fps, 1 card= min 22fps
Batlefield 2142: SLI= average 45fps, 1 card= average 75fps

Yet older stuff like Cod2, Quake4, 3dmk06, all run nearly twice as fast in SLI.

Do we have to wait a year before update patch v1.45 is reached or whatever :(

tried everything from re-installing dualcore patches/windows, old/new nvidia drivers, profiles in drivers even creating new profiles with advice from other people having same probs.

New games just hate SLI :eek:
 
Try checking the respective Games forums, see if others are posting similar issues. If so, you can be its a missing profile issue.
 
If you're running Company of Heroes, you have to patch it to version 1.2 the notes say "SLi optimisations" but what they mean is the game DOESNT work in SLi without it. I was stuttering in the cut scenes without the patch, now its running like a dream.

As for the other games, i don't know. If you've patched to 1.2 in CoH and you're still having trouble, there maybe something up with your setup, as I know it runs brilliantly with the patch.
