Okay a brief run down of what ive got going on here.
I have a 990fxa-ud3h rev 4.0 mother board
an Amd fx 8350 cpu at 4318.90 mhz
and 2 amd/ati sapphire 7870 ghz oc in crossfire.
i have a stallion rd700 watt psu
16gb or gskills ddr3 1600 ram
Monitor is a sony Brovia kld-32l400
I play lots of games, for example Planetside 2
With the 1 7870 with not fps capps like smoothing or v-sync i was seeing fps from 80-180 consistantly
With 2 7870 in crossfire same settings i see fps 40-80 consistantly
Also my cards seem to be only running at 20-30% load i have ulps disabled because i could not monitor the second card with it enabled.
all temps seem within tolerance but the cards do not seem to be quite sequential in load value's close but not the same .
Whats going on here i was getting great fps with just 1 7870 now its almost half .
Both cards are in pci-e 2.0 x16 slots on my mobo and are in crossfire according to gup-z and CCC.
thanks for any insite into this issue,
