I have two 7870s in crossfire. When cf is enabled games like cod ghost, crysis 3, bf4 have choppy cutscenes and sometimes gameplay. However when cf is disabled they run flawlessly. Any ideas why and what I can do to fix would be awesome. specs are all stock.

That's a common issue I have experienced with both SLI and crossfire. Honestly, expect problems. Update drivers and profiles though. That should fix it.

did you ever figure out the problem or a way to fix it. I have asus m5a99fx pro r20., amd fx 8350, patriot 16gb ram, 2x xfx 7870, ultra 850w bronze psu, intel 240gb ssd, 2x 3tb Seagate hdd raid 0. Same issues, battlefield or cod screen flickers flashes, glitchy, even lowest graphics settings. Turned off crossfire, runs high no problems, what gives right?
