    I have up on multi gpu setups, there a total head ache for software developers too

    If you get good utilisation with one gpu then simply switch the 2nd one off

    ....I'm not being very helpful am I

    i run a 6970 on triples (6028x1200), no AA, 8xAF,

    max everything, but medium shadows and effects - between 30 to 60fps, and i have multiview on, HDR on. It's not perfect, Spa can kill my frame rate down to 16 near eau rouge, but it's usable for sure.

    Hi Guys, solved a little bit the scaling problem... It turned out that the second card was on the wrong PCI slot... Now the scaling is perfect and was able to get much better FPS. The problem with those tracks remains though. I've checked the GPU memory usage and it seems fair enough. Will try to lower resolutions and see if that helps... My MSI panel is unable to correct power limit. Slider is actually disabled. But thx for the advice.

    I'm left rather disappointed with the fact that I can't play rf2 on multi-view & wondering if I it's the way things stand atm or am I doing something wrong.

    I have 4GB 680's in Sli using Nvidia 2D Surround option 1 for setting up my monitors:

    (GPU1 - DVI1, HDMI. GPU2 - DVI1. I have another 2 monitor attached to DVI2 ports of each card.)

    On Brianza, NO AI I get a max of 35fps with everything set to LOW & OFF, HDR ON, FXAA OFF & AA to level 2.

    I have reinstalled rf2 and it's made no difference. Any advice on how to raise the fps as it's unplayable for me with multi-view?

    Yeah, I'd seen that post but really the Sli profile doesn't make that much of a difference. What I have discovered does make a difference in Surround is HDR, with it OFF, I'm able to raise the AA to Level 3 & have most setting Medium to High with reflection OFF. It gives me a 50-60fps around Silverstone without AI & 40-50 with 8 AI running.

    I'm glad this post has made it's way back as rF2 is the reason I did a complete upgrade of my PC to a beast of a setup - yet still not good enough to run 5760x1080 and high settings. Getting seriously frustrated with not being able to enjoy high quality visuals and decent frame rates.

    Spec as follows:
    ASUS Rampage IV Extreme X79
    Intel i7-3930K Core i7 CPU, Six Core 3.20 GHz (overclocked to 4.2Ghz), 12MB Cache, 12 Threads
    Corsair Vengeance C70 Mid-Tower Gaming Case
    Corsair 64GB DDR3 2133MHz CL9 (9-11-11-31) Dominator Platinum (8x8GB)
    Corsair AX-1200i Platinum Certified ATX Power Supply
    Corsair 480GB Neutron SSD GTX (x2)
    Corsair Cooling Hydro Series H100i Liquid CPU Cooler
    Corsair Link Cooling Kits
    Corsair Air Series SP120 Performance Edition Case Fan (x6)
    GeForce TITAN PCI-E 3.0 6GB (x2)
    Creative Sound Blaster Zx
    Microsoft Windows 7 Professional 64-bit

    On my SLi system I can't run multiview and HDR without a massive framerate hit. It has to be one or the other... I choose multiview.

    My system is also a 3930K @ 4.2Ghz, but with 16GB RAM & 680's in Sli. I found a nice little compromise by switching off AA in game, HDR OFF, FXAA OFF & VSYNC OFF and then in Nvidia Control panel using this setting:

    Then in game I have everything on 'maximum' apart from Shadow (High), Shadow Blur (Optimum) & Environment Reflection (Low) & without AI I get between 50-60fps on Limerock.
