ok im working on this system for a while now. we found that one of the 275 where bad, so we shipped it out for RMA. now we have with the good card (tested with occt and vantage) crysis being the worst of all games but its seams like the game comes to a halt frames drop to 1 and it just lags for a few seconds to the point where the game freezes (sort of like when you reach a save point but its not at one lol.

I'm not sure if it matters with thermaltake PSU rails, but make sure both cards are not plugged into the same string of plugs. If there are power connectors for each card in seperate bundles, hook up each card to a different bundle.
Again, I am not familiar enough with your PSU to know if this could be an issue, but I have heard of it happening with other multi-gpu rigs.

ok time for an update sry it took so long, seams like a driver prob im testing out each driver with different results with each drivers, some work GREAT! but BSOD on coold boot the next morning... i have used the mushkin psu to test the cards with same results used a different thermaltake VGA express psu with same results
i have also tried the other 2 psi-e slots with same results. i think this is on all drivers... the brob i have now is to find a good driver thats stable not only in games but while booting and that will play good in most other game other then crysis

Ok a new update! i was looking at the event viewer. and like clock work each core shuts down one after an other in random order all with in the time the games glitch!
so i called EVGA and they looked at some bios settings all seamed good to them, they explained to try a different cpu so i did, this new cpu shuts the cores down on windows start up. so i tried different ram same prob any suggestions?
