Hey all,
I started playing Skyrim again recently and added the SoSENB to it. I play skyrim on my 2560x1440 27" Catleap Yamakasi 2703. I have an old 24" 1920x1200 dell in portrait mode also hooked up / powered on. In NVIDIA control panel, it\'s set to "maximize 3d performance" and SLI is listed as enabled.
I\'m a little confused why Skyrim is averaging a mere 10-24 FPS. I set everything to ultra in the game, then did a few .ini tweaks suggested on NVIDIA\'s skyrim tweak post, as well as installing and enabling SoSENB. The FPS hangs around 10-20 FPS.
Is there something I need to adjust in a .ini file or something? Is this "normal" for a 2-way SLI rig for this game? Benches I\'ve seen (at a mere 4x AA) suggest 80+ FPS.
I tried disabling SLI, and my FPS is almost identical, suggesting that SLI isn\'t working worth a darn for some reason. GPU utilization on each core never goes over 52%.
Why is my framerate so darn low?
Yes, I\'ve already made sure the SLI bridge was connected firmly.
Relevant specs:
Core i5 3570k - OC at 4.4GHz
dual Gigabyte Geforce 670 GTX cards in 2-way SLI (model GV-N670OC-2GD)
16 GB DDR3
Samsung 830 SSD 256 GB programs drive
Windows 8 Pro
Geforce driver ver. 310.70
