Hello,

When I try to play BF4 my setup is still unbelievably choppy to the point that it is unplayable.

I have:

3x 2560X1440 27" monitors in eyefinity setup.

3x R9 290 gently overclocked
i5 4670k gently overclocked
8GB RAM
1350 platimax PSU

Do I still not have enough power to run BF4 on these screens? It is just super stuttery and basically unplayable.

Thanks

Dude... You're playing @8K... Turn off AA, not needed at such a res. Turn off motion blur, and then keep the resolution scale to 100%. I bet even 3 780 Ti would struggle at such a res! BF4 is VERY undeveloped, DICE was rushed by EA to beat COD in sales. Don't expect super high frames @8K on an unfinished game. If I were you, I'd wait for DICE to fix the game and mantle to come. OR you could sell your 290s and buy multiple NVIDIA Maxwell cards. There is a possibility that CFX isn't on also. You have such a extreme rig, but even multiple 780Tis would choke up a bit of frames.

Unfortunately, vram doesn't stack with sli or crossfire. Download techpowerup's GPUZ to monitor temps, usage, etcs.

I guess I'm just confused because I see these reviews where people are running similar setups to mine and getting a nice 50 fps while mine is nowhere near that good. Am I just expecting too much from my setup right now?
