alright...just finished running it again for another hour with zero drops
as far as it goes when i said i still get random fps stutters or whatever it is they only happen in actual games for the most part so thats probably some other kind of issue i have to figure out as benchmarks dont have the problem

oh one more thing i have noticed...what browser are you guys using? im currently on chrome and at its default settings of having the "use hardware acceleration when available" enabled i was having a TON of random stutters and usage drops but after disabling that it all went away it seems
 
just an observation while troubleshooting my issues

I agree that this performance drop was a pain in the butt! Bf4 and other games were just awful. After some time I fixed the issue with my FTW. I'm not going to say how as EVGA would not be happy with the way I did it, but I can say the reason it was flawed was because of the poor board and parts. I currently can run the card at 1478 core with a 1745 boost. Of course this is nothing compared to my Gigabyte G1 out of the box with no fixes needed. A family member just got a MSI gamer and is having very good results with it much like the G!.

EVGA won't care. EVGA wants to see your feedback so they can improve things. What did you do?


Your do a very good job in helping the community. I have had this fix running now for 2 weeks and if all goes well in another 2 weeks (still testing) I will post my fix.
 
As far as EVGA wanting feedback, the net is full of people who have asked EVGA to address the issues with some of these cards. There reply is simple "buy our new product ".


Thanks. I'll be looking forward to your reply in two weeks.

I'm trying to reform and keep my snark to myself..but I suspect you are correct. Too add to the data base, I ran my SLI TITANS for about an hour and they were rock steady at 93-95%. This is using the latest 347.09 driver.

If you believe the Gigabyte cards are flawless and there's some magical fix EVGA doesn't want you to know about, I've got the Brooklyn Bridge for you to buy at a great price.

would like to update what i said a bit earlier about not having the issue in benchmarks
 
while like i said benchmarks do not seem to give me that random gpu usage fluctuation but every game ive been playing today most definitely shows it...every single time theres a slight stutter with the performance theres a drop to 20% or less gpu usage then right back up to wherever that game was using at the time
 
as ive been trying to figure this out for the past few weeks or so right now this is a pretty fresh windows install with nothing but drivers, antivirus, a few monitoring programs that i had disabled for this testing outside of afterburner, and games

  This is a valid point! Same here! In benches it was not as obvious as in games. The reason for this is due to the LOD (level of detail) and IGF ( In game fullness ). As a game tester these are some of the things the devs ask me to test. This is why I'm testing in games instead of bench software.

I never said that any of them were flawless. My first G1 was returned due to a bad port. In fact one of the major issues with the FTW is the power side of it. This is why EVGA has basically redesigned the FTW with the FTW plus. AS I stated in another post I will tell how I fixed my FTW, but for now I'm not giving feedback how I did it so EVGA can fix there flawed FTW's and put them back in rotation.

Sorry to hear you're having the issue inside games. To bad you can't go back to driver 331.82 like us 700 series users can. If you could go back to driver 331.82 i'm pretty sure it would solve the issue for ya.

the strange part for me is that it seems to come and go...one round of whatever game im playing will be perfectly fine then the next will be pretty bad with stuttering
 
so on my end at least still trying different things to figure out if its a different piece of my hardware thats having issues

FSX is CPU bound rather than GPU. If I remember it won't support sli.

For 700/900 series users looks like you can use 344.11 to prevent the stutter...
 
AthilarSo I've read that all drivers up to and including the 344.11 release will also stop the stuttering, but you have to put your computer to sleep and wake it up again in order for this to work.  You have to do this every time you reboot, too, or if you change any options in the nvidia control panel.

well this doesnt seem to work for me so either this doesnt work for everyone or im right that something else on my system is jacked up
 
reinstalled the drivers 3x using DDU and didnt modify anything or even install precision and turned off my overclocks and such...just plain drivers then into testing games
 
going to let memtest run all night and if that doesnt show anything might go pick up a new ssd this weekend and see if that helps...kinda want another one anyway haha
 
edit: oh yeah...doesnt matter if sli is enabled/disabled even when i physically remove one of the cards and run each on their own still does it

Sorry to hear it didn't work for you. You did put your computer to sleep & wake it back up before testing your games correct?

Re: 900 Series GPU Usage Dropout Test. 2015/01/13 23:30:53 (permalink)
Count me in as another 900 series user experiencing this issue. I recorded a gameplay video of stuttering while playing Bioshock Infinite. Notice the low temperatures and CPU utilization (definitely not a CPU Bottleneck or thermal throttling). GPU utilization plummets on numerous occasions in the video resulting in stutters and huge frame drops. This happens to me in every game I play, some worse than others but this is an example of how frustrating this issue is for gaming. Maybe I have spent too much time gaming on my 120hz gaming desktop but this amount of stuttering makes games unplayable for me.

Edit: apparent I can't post links, most likely due to the fact that I am a new member. I signed up just to report that I am also having this issue.

i would say that the point here  .there is no way it should be stutting  .games that were ok .are now unplayable .i can play grid on my laptop   but not on 2x 980 sli . done form laptop  at least internet Explorer dont stutter on here

Re: 900 Series GPU Usage Dropout Test. 2015/01/14 00:43:49 (permalink)
i've just tried this test. Left it running for 1 hr. Didn't seem to run into any drop outs. It varied between 82-97 as can be seen in the image file (IGNORE THE LAST BIT - I HAD QUIT HEAVEN 4 HENCE THE DROP IN GPU USAGE).
 
I do however, get stuttering in games like Farcry 4, and Assassin's creed unity. ACU is buggy as - clothes on people randomly fly up. quite a few textures are flickering - water, roof tiles, some shiny gold-like objects. Call of duty ghosts and AW seems to run flawless. So, not sure if its SLI/driver problem or just UBISOFT...lol

By the way, anyone know where to download latest GPU bios? one of my cards is running an older bios.
 
Thanks

i've just tried this test. Left it running for 1 hr. Didn't seem to run into any drop outs. It varied between 82-97 as can be seen in the image file (IGNORE THE LAST BIT - I HAD QUIT HEAVEN 4 HENCE THE DROP IN GPU USAGE).

Can confirm the stutter.. in FSX flightsim and in GRID Autosport,,
3 x sli GTX 980 SC Evga
Waiting for driver update..
 




off topic a bit
but why do you think you need 3 GTX 980s in SLI to run GRID Autosport
my 970 can max that game out and only use about 50%
unless you are going 4k, but even then, seems a bit much


i would say that the point here  .there is no way it should be stutting  .games that were ok .are now unplayable .i can play grid on my laptop   but not on 2x 980 sli . done form laptop  at least internet Explorer dont stutter on here
 
 




oh i agree thats the point

sleep/wake with 344.11 seems to be working. played a bunch of battlefield 4 last night, didn't stutter once/drop gpu usage to 0%. also sli and surround works fine compared to 331.82/331.93. also imported some sli profiles but this is the smoothest gameplay i've had in like 6 months lol
