Hi,
I recently got my second gtx 480. So running in two way sli configuration. Using evga x58 sli mono, intel i7-930, mushkin redline ddr3 triple channel memory x2 (12gb total) and corsair hxt-1000 psu.
I'm not very happy with the SLI performance. In Hitman Absolution it does not produce much increase. In Crysis 2 it is running below 15fps when lots of objects/aliens are visible, getting to 25fps when not many objects are visible. This was with Geometric Details set to ultra. Other settings did not make any difference. Changing Geometric Details to low increases the FPS to about 25-30 in the same scene.
Tried with running the physics on GPU and then on the CPU but this does not improve the performance.
Why is the performance so poor? Ow can't diagnose this? Which settings would produce the best quality and performance in my case?
P.S. I'd prefer to ru under 2560x1600 resolution if possible. 1920x1200 is still acceptable.
Thank you,
Ruben
