Hello guys,
i need your help.
I want to play BF1 but my GPU Usage is so low its only like 50-60% on both cards.
Do you know any fixes ?
Setup:
GTX 1070 sli
ryzen5 2600x
16gb 3200mhz dual channel 2x8
other games like overwatch work better but still not perfect.
 
Solution
So I had similar issue. Only getting 60% usage on BF V after I was gettin 98% and WAY more frames the day before. Even with massive overclocking, the usage wouldnt go up and frames suffered. THEN I remembered I turned DX 12 off in the game settings the night before and went to sleep bc forum posts said it helped with stuttering. Well it did the OPPOSITE, turning it off made me drop 40fps and wouldnt allow my usage above 60%. I turned DX12 back on and BOOM everything is now perfect 98% usage and frames returned. Good luck

i'm not expert on SLI, but I believe not all games capitalize on it. sometimes the gains will be minimal, but i'm not expert, maybe if someone with more experience here can confirm this. they do good benchmark here with 1070s in sli, but the first game only gains 2 fps
