Hello,
Right now I have SLI 560 TI's running in 16x and 8x and when I run games like BF3 or anything that pushes these cards my top card gets very hot. In BF3 my top card goes to 90-95c (yes with both fans at 100%) and hangs around there which I've seen others say that's fine for these cards while my second card is around 65c. My question is this.
I have another PCI-E slot which would run the card at 4x how much of a performance drop would I see if I moved the card that's currently in the 8x into the 4x just so it's not cooking my top card?
Also I get FPS drops in BF3 as low as 15 FPS which is bad. I noticed when these drops occur the GPU usage % drops a lot with the FPS. I was wondering why it does this. I have my specs below.
Windows 7 64 Bit.
i5 750 @ 4.0
Thermaltake 850W TR2 RX
8GB (4 x 2GB) G.SKILL Ripjaws Series DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800)
EVGA GTX 560 Ti Superclocked X2 (DRIVER VERSION) 285.62.
EVGA P55 SLI E655
