660 Ti SLi low usage BF3

[Trashcan]

While playing BF3 MP my GPUs are sitting between 50% - 65% usage and im not getting a steady over 144fps. Any ideas?

It its low usage doesn't it mean its not even trying?

Did you always have the SLI 660 Ti's or did you get them recently?  Maybe BF3 just doesn't utilize SLI very well.

my older rig had 660ti's in sli and on ultra avg about 90 fps. are you playing on lower settings that you are trying to hit that high fps?

Did you set-up a proper sli profile using nvidia inspector?

did you unpark your cpu cores?

sorry for very late reply, ive been busy, but no i didnt set up a sli profile in inspector. I didnt know i had to.

It just means your CPU is hitting it's limit. It's atm just impossible to have 144 fps stable at ultra settings. My 3930K can't push my 780's above 50% in BF3 -> 

(watch at 03:50 30%/30% gpu load)

Just raise your clock speed, this game doesn't seem to be taking any advantage of more than 4 cores so I disabled 2 cores & HT, bumped the clock to 4.8GHz and I was getting 50%/50% load at same spot as in my video with 80-90 fps.

That's BF for you. I still love 3 & 4 though.
