Sorry, i should have been more specific. The file that was mentioned in that article is not on my computer and i can't install that driver because it says that it does not match my hardware.

A single 960 will play that game at maxed out settings 100+ fps.

Do you really need SLI?

I just installed the game today. The opening cinematic plays at about 4 fps, after that its not too bad, i guess. I prefer to run sli because i'm still on a Core 2 Quad q9550. Im sure a single 960 would beast with a better CPU.

The cpu is overclocked from 2.8ghz to 3.4ghz. I was going to upgrade to the i7 4790k at the beginning of April, but Skylake is only a few months away and is also 4.0ghz like the 4790k, but has usb 3.1 and ddr 4.

Will ddr4 be something wow? No? Then why to upgrade.

CPU: AMD FX 8350 | GPU: AMD R9 270 Windforce | MOBO: ASRock 990FX Extreme 3 | RAM: Kingston HyperX 8GB | Case: X Predator X1 |CPU COOLER: Hyper T4

NAZIS WILL RISE.

Because I plan on upgrading every 2-3 years and good ddr 4 will last me a few upgrades, whereas buying ddr3 now will be one-and-done. Bad investment.
