Hey guys, just got The Witcher 3 and I'm mildly disappointed with the performance.

Firstly I'm running at native 4K so it's expected that it's going to take a lot of grunt to run it fully on 60+ FPS but my problem is that 4-way (and even 3 way) had actually decreased performance.

I'm running 4-Way GTX 980's, and with all new games I play I test them in order from Single GPU > SLI > 3-Way SLI > 4 Way SLI.

All running at maximum settings:

Single GPU = 30fps roughly
SLI = 40-60fps
3 -Way SLI = the same as SLI
4-Way SLI is between 30-40fps.

All drivers are up to date, newest Nvidia game ready drivers installed.

Now I know SLI past 2-Way is flakey at best and a bit of a hit and miss, but I'm disappointed that such a new game actually performing worse with 3-4 GPU's when there's a lot of titles released in the past year or so that hugely benefit from 2+ GPU's.

Anybody else having a similar problem?

I'm not being bottlenecked by any other hardware, a brief of my other specs are:

i7 4930k
4-Way 980's
64gb Hyper-X 2400Mhz
1500W PSU
Evo 850 SSD
