Hello I've been playing around with my rig and decided to go AMD. Ran into a lot of issues in the start but finally been able to get some games running and overall... I'm unimpressed?
I was modding Skyrim and my fps outside is around 24 average and drops to as low as 18 in some instances (I have K ENB but still.. something must be wrong).
Even without the enb my skyrim runs at a max of 44 frames on ultra.
Also did testing and it is the same fps as a single card even though my 2nd card is hitting high temps and gpu usage.
For the other game I play which is the Witcher 2 I can run about 90 average without ubersampling but once I put it on I get 40s and drops to low 30s. I thought my rig could handle such games due to benchmarks so am I doing something wrong?
Tested with 14.7 drivers, 14.4, 13.12, etc.
System Specs:
i5-4670k - 4.0GHz
8 gbs of ram
2 x 290x Sapphire Reference Cooler
Dark power Pro 1000w PSU
Asus Hero VI mobo
Windows 8.1
Crossfire is enabled in AMD CCC
Both cards are functioning well singularily
Stats:
gpu clock : 1000MHZz --> 1065MHz oc'd
gpu voltage : 1.135V --> 1.195V oc'd
memory clock : 1250MHz --> 1355MHz oc'd
%usage : 100%
temp : 94 on full load --> 86 oc'd
fan speed : 40% --> 60% oc'd
PSU 12v,5, 3.4v:
3v = 3.344
5v = 5v
12v = 12.192
