Does SLI help this game?

[Sean Maxwell]

I play the Rainbow Six series of games. I am wondering if SLI would help them significantly. Raven Shield: Athena Sword is the most current. I also play Starcraft but we don't need SLI for it. 😉

Thanks,
Sean

Which only means there is no profile created for it. For the answer to your question, you'll need someone with SLI and this game, as you can easily create profiles or force SLI on an app with control panel settings.

I don't tend to put much faith in the losting at nZone, one of the games listed as having a profile for SLI actually still exhibits are rather significant performance hit while running in SLI and at least one other that's listed performs pretty much identically with/without SLI.

It would seem supported, doesn't necessarily imply better performance.

Not hard to create a profile for it to test it out though, I don't have Rainbow 6 though so I can't comment on whether SLI benefits it.
