Hey guys..
About 9 months ago, I started a new pc build with high hopes of being able to experience nvidia's top of the line gaming experience - ie Surround 3D. I started out with a Haf x nvidia edition case, g1 assassin mobo, i7 960 (oc to 4ghz on water), 1200w psu, 2 x evga gtx 580 (3gb editions) and 12gb corsair vengeance ram.. I also set myself up with 3 x 120hz nvidia 3d approved monitors (Benq xl2410t).. Using this setup, I was only able to achieve 15 - 20 fps in bf3 in 2d surround with settings set to ultra.. So recently I decided to purchase a 3rd gtx 580 and another 12gbs ram - also did a waterloop flush and clean etc.. Now I am still only achieving 20 - 30 fps, occasionally spiking to the 50s and 60s.. Am I missing something here? Is this the most my 4k system can handle? I purchased the 3gb editions specifically for dealing with multiple monitors and with the 3 cards, I now have the monitors all running off each different card.. I know that 1 of my cards can play on a single 24" monitor without any problems, is the SLI scaling that poor? Ive maxed out my budget and patience with this game, so is there any way to optimize gameplay using only software? Ive already given up on 3D surround (even though I get massively increased fps when playing single player campaign).. This is my first time on the forum, please help me out..
ps. Nvidia drivers are up to date..
