Hello All,

Long time lurker, decided to join the community.

 

So I noticed my Graphics cards were getting a little hotter than usual.

I opened up MSI Afterburner and noticed my first graphics card was running at 98% usage while my second card was at 0% usage.

I have all the latest drivers, and I even tried to uninstal and reinstall but to no avail.

 

Any suggestions?

PC Specs:

Intel 3570k @3.4Ghz

MSI Z77A-GD65

EVGA GeForce GTX 660 (x2 running in SLI using MSI SLI bridge)

Corsair TX650M PSU

Corsair Vengance LP (2x 8GB  DDR3)

Cooler Master Seidon 240M

Western Digital 1TB HD

Western Digital 2 TB HD

 

Thanks.

you are running SLI correct? 

 

make sure it's enabled in nvidia control panel and see if the game you are running even supports SLI

SLI is enabled in the nvidia control panel but I did not realize some games did not support SLI.

Bummer, I think you solved my problem.

Thanks.
