Hey all,
I just wanted to post a general question because I am having trouble with my MSI GTX 780s SLI.
My system is as follows:
I-7 3820 @ 3.8 GHz
2x GTX 780 SLI
16 GB DDR3 mem
875W power supply
overclocked shimian monitor @ 70 hz (1440p)
Anyways, I have that new NVidia shield or optimizer program, and it works pretty decently at giving my games decent settings for good framerates. Usually it just puts everything on max though (except for crysis 3, max + leaving MSAA at 1x).
However for some reason, I just cannot play crysis 1 on max settings at 1440P. In benchmarks I've seen online, crysis 1 was played at about 65ish FPS on 780 sli. However I have horrible framerate and horrible screen tearing. I tried managing the 3d settings on the nvidia control panel and enabled both vsync, and then vsync and triple buffer for the application, but it did not work. Crysis doesnt even show up in the nvidia optimizer application so I cant rely on that either.
When I go into crysis to try and optimize the settings it puts everything on "High" instead of "Very High". That is strange to me... I would have though 780 SLI could handle it because it runs crysis 3 just fine @ 1440p.
Anyways, does any one have any suggestions? Maybe a setting or driver somewhere in Crysis that I missed? SLI is deff enabled.
When checking activity of my GPUs, GPU usage was near 100% pretty much the whole time. Clock speed was at 950ish for each, and temps were at about 74ish for 1 card and 79ish for the other. Power percentage was about 45-50% the whole time.
Would it be safe to apply a fan curve to the card where the fan speed goes to about 85%-90% at 78ish degrees? I don't want to wear the cards out.
Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong? This isnt the first time this has happened. There is another gentleman on here who has told me that Crysis 3 runs flawlessly for him at 1440p on 2x MSAA where for me I get only around 20-30FPS at those settings. I want to get the most out of these 780s.
Thank you!
