Hi guys
Problem:
My crossfired 6870's yields a worse performance than a single card. On all of the games I've played, I got the same problem. (League Of Legends, NBA 2k14, Crysis 2, DMC5, Grid 2, etc) For example In LoL, I would get a stable, non-stuttering 180 frames with CF disabled, but with CF I only get 80 and with a lot of stuttering. I turned it to the lowest setting, and I'm still getting the same low fps with CF disabled. With other games like NBA 2k14, I would get about the same FPS with CF both disabled and enabled, but it stutters a lot with CF enabled. I ran Crysis 2 on ultra, and I would get a stable 43 FPS with CF, but again, not as smooth as CF disabled.
Specs:
CPU: i5-4670K OC'd @ 4.4
MB: Asrock z87 Pro 4
Ram: 16GB G.Skill Cas10 @ 1600
GPU: HD-687A - ZNFC (main) & HD 687A - ZHFC (second) (same cards, different heatsink)
PSU: Corsair TX 850 M
Solution Tried:
I've tried 12.09, 12.10, and 13.10 beta version of CCC, with new catalyst profile.
I've disabled ULPS in registry & Trixx as well. (When I use other programs to disable ULPS, it gives me an error that the registry number cannot be found)
I've flashed the GPU Bios from Techpowered Up.
Took out the secondary card, put it in the primary slot, (works perfectly)
Benchmarks:
3dMark11 w/ CF: http://www.3dmark.com/3dm11/7179533
3dMark11 w/o CF: http://www.3dmark.com/3dm11/7174944
After burner
GPUz Cards ran at the same time:
Main Card:
Second Card:
GPUz cards ran separately (only card in the pcie)
1st card:
2nd card:
I noticed that my 2nd card's voltage is very high, even when idle. I flashed the bios, still the same.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks You
