Cant see it mention'ed anywhere but are you running windowed mode? And if so you need to disable desktop composition for hl2.exe otherwise it will eat your fps.

Tried playing with one card, same FPS. Tried removing the overclock and playing at stock speeds, same. It is like my overclock did not help one bit to the FPS. I am really clueless wtf is going on, I really do not want to format my windows again..

go to ccc and set all the graphics options to application settings (what ever its called) that may work]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=off-topic&topic=16638&post=300778 Thu, 05 May 2011 16:39:47 +0200 Reply by Dekken https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/off-topic/topic-16638/page-4/?recent=300842#post=300762 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=off-topic&topic=16638&post=300762 Thu, 05 May 2011 15:54:14 +0200 Reply by Dekken https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/off-topic/topic-16638/page-4/?recent=300842#post=300569 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=off-topic&topic=16638&post=300569 Wed, 04 May 2011 22:27:10 +0200 Reply by FireStorm https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/off-topic/topic-16638/page-4/?recent=300842#post=300555 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=off-topic&topic=16638&post=300555 Wed, 04 May 2011 21:35:44 +0200 Reply by Lucifer https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/off-topic/topic-16638/page-4/?recent=300842#post=300554 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=off-topic&topic=16638&post=300554 Wed, 04 May 2011 21:23:37 +0200 Reply by Dekken https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/off-topic/topic-16638/page-4/?recent=300842#post=300553 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=off-topic&topic=16638&post=300553 Wed, 04 May 2011 21:11:18 +0200 Reply by adam-skyride https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/off-topic/topic-16638/page-4/?recent=300842#post=300530 Quoted from Dekken

There has to be a reason for this.

There is. Valve doesn't care enough to add it because the OB engine is CPU bottlenecked anyway, plus there are newer versions of the engine. L4D2 has Crossfire support.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=off-topic&topic=16638&post=300530 Wed, 04 May 2011 20:07:16 +0200 Reply by Dekken https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/off-topic/topic-16638/page-4/?recent=300842#post=300509 Quoted from Skyride

[...] OB engine doesn't support crossfire. Still doesn't really explain his abysmally low FPS though.

There has to be a reason for this. seriously, I will try few things next: Remove the overclock on the CPU, restore everything to default. Remove one GPU card. I will see how it goes.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=off-topic&topic=16638&post=300509 Wed, 04 May 2011 18:50:26 +0200 Reply by adam-skyride https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/off-topic/topic-16638/page-4/?recent=300842#post=300446 Quoted from lagi

I wonder if TF2 is the one of the few games that cause these kind of issues. Go Valve

I see. Well I will try removing one card and trying again. I also re-installed TF2 and it did not help. But what did help to the FPS in Crysis 2 was reverting the drivers back to 11.2 instead of 11.4, but yet no effect on TF2. Getting around 70 to 130 fps in crysis in times. never going below 70.

crysis isnt running on source engine, dunno why u keep comparing tf2 to it... its like comparing truck with a covertable]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=off-topic&topic=16638&post=300443 Wed, 04 May 2011 16:51:25 +0200
