Go on 3D Settings in the menu bar (next to Desktop and Help) and check the first option to show SLI indicator.

There should be a really noticable indicator on the game if SLI is running.

Hi Peeps,

 

I have 2 x GTX 670's and i was running some benchmarks and realised that it seems that only 1 of my GPU's are at 99%...

 

Is this right? or is it just stress testing 1 of my GPU's?

 

Thanks,

 

Jamie

Run an actual game and then come back.

Also, SLI doesn't run in windowed mode, only full screen.

On my rig the SLI indicator doesn't appear when in windowed. Only full screen.
