aquamark3 and SLI GTX780Ti

[Matsglobetrotter]

Hi,

 

what is the correct way to set up the Nvidia drivers to run SLI with Aquamark3. I get much better scores running one 780Ti alone than with 2 in SLI. I have tried the standard global settings as well as force setting SLI but nothing seems to improve the score.

os?

I am using Win7 64 bit

well, you may see scaling in aqua only with low end cards. high end cards are too powerful to gain something from sli. And results may be even worse as sli require more cpu resources. Just check if sli is working in other tests - if it does then everything is okay with cards and os.

Ah ok that explains it. Yes the cards are working in SLI as per test in other Benchermarks.

 

Thanks

So much this, AQ3 is 2.5D at best, just need a high clocking cpu and good memory.

Thanks guys.

 

Am ragging up all i can hehe. Just knowing what the bottleneck is helps.

 

I have not even gone into LOD and such. Still chasing the big ticket changes.

2.5D lol

 

I think latest gen graphics that Aqua really scaled with on multi card was HD5800.
