112FPS w/ SLI on 144Hz G-SYNC Monitor??

FWIW, I too have a 1440p 144Hz G-Sync monitor and I just loaded up BF4

2560x1440 @ 144Hz

Low preset locks me in at 144fps. I'm using a DP cable. Specs in sig.

Same thing for me on a single GTX 970. These problems arise when I enable SLI.
 
What happens when you enable SLI and don't play at such low settings making your CPU the bottleneck?? and then compare that with a single card at those same settings that actually tax the GPU
 
Are both your cards the same model/manufacturer? Have you got another sli bridge spare you can try? You could also use gpuz and see what it says is the reason the cards are throttling. Whatever your using to monitor framerate doesn't have the option to cap framerate and is enabled?

There was a bug in the nvidia drivers a few revisions ago that locked gsync to 105fps but that's fixed.

I understand CPU bottlenecking is an issue for some people, but 200FPS(the FPS cap for BF4) wouldn't make my i7-4790K @ 4.7GHz the bottleneck. Especially, since, like I said, the cards easily hit and never drop below 200FPS on my 1080p monitor, but cap themselves at 170FPS when I set this monitor to 1920x1080.

Maybe it's just the cable. Which replacement one did you order?
 
I had a similar issue. It was a Gsync bug. I think it was a driver issue and fixed with a driver update. I got locked in at 120hz on a 144hz monitor, but actual FPS displayed was around 115 or something like that. Just under 120. The driver update fixed it.
