SLI 770 problems

[PhantomXman]

I just recently bought a second 770 and i went it to the nvidia control panel and activated sli and have the bridge on but yet i don't see a performance difference in my games like in saints row 4 i was only getting 50 frames in the most intense areas i know it is a very unoptimized game but i still should get more especially when i had only one 770 i got like 70 to 75 frames at worst at the highest quality so i want to know what is going on because i don't think it could bottleneck with an 8350 @ 4.4 ghz

Bad SLI optimization, just disable it when your playing that game.

 

 

 

Btw what cooler are you using for the 8350?

[PhantomXman]

h320 for cooling and i tried it on black ops 2 also i can't remember what i got before but i only getting like 160 frames on it and that game requires almost nothing so i expected more and my friend has a 580 and even he was getting  bit better so i don't think it is just that game

it is just that, sli optimization isnt great for all games, thats why we reccomend single GPU solution on here. :I

well i do have two more of my asus 24 inch 1080p monitors i just can't set them up yet but when i do would i still have to disable it

Have you set Saints Row 4 to maximize performance in the nvidia settings? That can make a huge difference. If you don't your cards will downclock when they shouldn't. 

[PhantomXman]

yes in geforce experience i set it to best optimized settings

No, not that. Up under "Manage 3D settings" in Nvidia Control Panel. Add SR4 to the program list, and change the power management mode to "prefer maximum performance".
