Edited by: Banjo String on 17/02/2011 14:32:55 Hi,
I'm lucky to be getting myself a dual HD6950 setup at the weekend, and I'm wondering if there is anything I need to be aware of running dual GPU's wth EvE.
This is the first time I have ever had a dual GPU system, so am a complete noob regarding it all, so any advice, tips or warnings are much appreciated!
My main use case will be with 2 clients running, each fullscreen/full fixed window, on 1920x1080. What would be the best way to setup the cards etc.. to get the most out of them in this scenario.
Also, how would I achieve running a single client across both screens utilising the cards in SLI mode?

I've been googling for stuff but I cant find much relevant. My google-fu is weak :/ if anyonie can point me at some links with helpful info that would be much appreciated.

Crossfire and SLI attempt to work in a way in that their performance is combined to a single unit at least to simplify things a lot. EVE can function fine with SLI and Crossfire.
For dual clients on 2 screens it would just a simple task of selecting the GPU unit in the client for each screen to allow Fixed Window mode to allow you to maximize the clients onto each screen.
For a single client across 2 screens the drivers will either add the maximum resolution itself or may require you to add this yourself to select it in the client dropdown. ------------------------------------- The system issues man. |

I use two monitors and SLI with two GTX280's. Never HAD any problems but...
I just updated to the latest drivers and find that dual boxing has become terrible after either: 1. New Drivers 2. After the Incursion update
It happens that I updated drivers at the same time of the Incursion update.
I never had ANY issues before, but now Eve will stutter like crazy when going into warp with either character/eve window. Drakes ROCK! |
