r9 295x2 Problems

I need some help guys. i'm having some trouble with my 295x2 in bf4 my gpu's are not at 100%load. They are bouncing up and down from everything as low as 0% on one core and maybe 80% on the other core (using msi afterburner) I'm playing on fullscreen in 1920x1080p with everything on ultra and 100% resolutionscale. (I know, i know 1080p on 295x2 waste of money etc... But im planning to get 2 more monitors soon to try out surround gaming.) I really want to get this problem fixed before i go and pull th trigger on two more monitors for surround.. I guess if it is defect i'll just have to go back to my gtx 570...

My specs are:

MSI Z97m Gaming
i5 4690k (not overclocked)
r9 295x2(not overclocked)
Corsair AX 860w
Corsair H105 (front mounted Push/Pull)
HyperX Fury 16gb (Not overclocked)
Corsair 350d (Not really important but why not..)

What performance are you getting? GPU load is irrelevant if you are getting a good framerate

 

Try disabling crossfire? or enabling mantle?

From what i can remember (Not at gaming computer atm.) i was getting 60-100+ fps. the wierd thing is that my gpu load is usally at 90-100% both cores at the start of the game after i loaded into a match but they quickly become unstable and starts jumping arround.

 I've also noticed some wierd texture flickering in the game, textures such as grass, ground, background textures like mountains etc..

I believe there is a problem with BF4 and Crossfire.  Try disabling crossfire and see if that fixes it.

 

Ok i'll be sure ti try disabling crossifre then when i get on my pc. I'll also try to run a valley benchmark to check if the gpu load/performance is ok there. i dont now what kinda scores i should be getting wiht a 295x2 though, do you know like the average score with a 295x2?

Have you tried mantle? With BF4 mantle should provide a very steady framerate with little frametime variance. 

 

Also, try limiting framerate to refresh rate or using vsync.

 

One other thing, but I'm not sure how much impact this might have.... Illuminati confirmed?
