Hello. I just got a second card and setup SLI and now in my current game MWO:ONline I am experiencing major flickering issues. Also in game and in a match there is a "ghost" image of the mechlab, which is like the menu or launch screen. Any ideas on how to fix?

I hope that made sense.
 
and for my spec:
i7 4790k (new)
ASRock z97 Extreme4 mobo (new)
8g ddr3 (upgrading as we speak)
2x Nvidia geforce GTX 680 4gb (347.52) in SLI

    Apparently SLI is still broken in this game.  A couple of fixes I've read about is turning shadows to low, or running it in DX9 mode.

    Have you tested with a different SLI Bridge or tested using the other SLI Forks?
    Are you sure the second GTX 680 is GOOD?

    @ bcavnaugh: I know it works on its own, at least it boots up. I do not have extensive testing and fps tracked with the new one alone.
     
    @heavy: Hmm, well that sucks. I was playing around with video settings and got a substantial improvement from turning AA off, however still some flickering.

    If you do a search on that game and SLI flickering you'll see it's been an issue forever. If you're getting decent frame rates with one GPU, you can set the individual game profile in the Nvidia control panel to 'Single GPU'. This won't disable SLI globally. it just makes the game run in single GPU mode.

    SLI flickering is on Both Sets of SLI Forks?
     
    Do you get SLI flickering when you run 3DMarks 11 or Fire Strike?
