Josh_killaknott27 Dice did not implement Multi GPU into the BF1 build, from what I understand sli users have had some issues. But crossfire is a stuttering mess right now, turn frame pacing off, set texturing to performance over default, use the pre defined crossfire profile, nothing works not one bit of it. Set the UPLS default to 0...the list goes on and on. At this point I know its the developer, but how is Nvidias sli working and scaling vs crossfire not working really at all.Reply -
CEVAY_ i'm sick of VSR not working in-game will not go above 1080p have an MSI RX 480 8GB with drivers 17.4.1-17.4.2-17.4.3 they didn't say they'de fixed it in this verion 17.4.4 so i'm steering clear still on 17.3.3 works perfectly on this driver.Reply
