do you get stutter with one gpu setting ?

edit : i would try with defult bios setting without oc first

 

[ShadowGhost-007]

not as much its kinda strange bf4 actually runs better on one gpu

 

[ShadowGhost-007]

ok when i get home ill reset my bios

Do you have v-sync off? V-sync can limits your fps and can make your graphics stutter. you can disable it in Nvidia control panel under 3d settings and you can let geforce experience optimize your games or turn it off manually in game

 

[ShadowGhost-007]

ive tried adaptive on off and every other setting on the nvidia ctl pannle

same results

also ingame?

 

[t21]

yeah try to disable oc and see how it will go , unstable oc will result in bad gaming experience also check your temp and gpu usage

 

[ShadowGhost-007]

ok ill do that but ive seen that my gpu usage is rather low especially when playing bf4 i dont think it gets over 50%

 

[t21]

that's kinda normal especially bf4 is bad optimized game, i would try playing crysis 3 , it has better optimization , whats your temp since two 780 could produce a lot of heat and without proper cooling and air flow it would give you some trouble

also ingame?

yes, even tho i would like it cuz i have a 144 hz monitor

when i get home ill try crysis 3 and what is "too hot" for reference cards

 

[t21]

do you get the stutter when you lower refresh rate ?

temps should be around 70's wich is normal but i guess you reaching high 80s

yes, even tho i would like it cuz i have a 144 hz monitor

ohh i think you misunderstood me. I meant do you also have v-sync turned off in game?

 

[ShadowGhost-007]

do you get the stutter when you lower refresh rate ?

on bf4 or monitor.

yes all vsync disabled every where

 

[t21]

do you get the stutter when you lower refresh rate ?

on bf4 or monitor.

in game when you set refresh rate to 60 or 75 or 120 do u still get stuttering ? because it might related to mouse issue settings since you get that stutter in all games

i dont exactly stutter in in games other than bf4 i just get bad frame rates and in game right now its at 120 i think

 

[ShadowGhost-007]

in degrees Celsius correct? ill post the evga percision x log when i get home

 

[t21]

yes Celsius , would be helpful to see log file and set the monitor to it's native refresh rate

 

[ShadowGhost-007]

yes Celsius , would be helpful to see log file and set the monitor to it's native refresh rate

k,native? wahts that exactly

 

[t21]

i mean set it to 144hz and play at that refresh rate

 

[ShadowGhost-007]

i mean set it to 144hz and play at that refresh rate

k

 

[ShadowGhost-007]

i mean set it to 144hz and play at that refresh rate

reset bios
ok here is what i got

logs http://gyazo.com/68abc6bbd31db9d9d5810dab62defca5

was getting 35 - 60 fps jummpy

i think resting the bios helped but i still cant play it comfortably

 

[t21]

what you mean by you can't play it comfortably ? what do you experience ?

edit: did you run crysis 3 ?
