Did you enable SLI? Sounds like the second card is idling.

Yes the SLI is enabled :) but the temp on it is around 33 while the other is around 80'ish... what should i be doing to unleash my cards true power? ;p

Apparently SLI is a wreck in the Division.

Run it with SLI disabled and check your FPS.

OMg! it's so much better! lmao why ubisoft is so weak?! anyways! after turning it off i am getting 30 - 42 fps rate <3 you my friend are awesome!!!! sucks the fact i can't use both cards on this game....

To everyone!

I have about played The Division on Ultra 4k settings for about an 1 1/2 tonight and i haven't gotten the Black Screen of death <3 is there anything else i should be doing or I am good to go and enjoy my pc from here on? I am just a little disappointed that i can't optimize my cards to the fullest on The Division...kinda wasted my $80...i should've gotten The Witcher. The Division is awesome regardless.....just....you know....not happy about me not able to push 2 of my cards...until ubisoft fixes it? i dunno... 
 

Another quick question....what is the best SSD Internal drive out there? looking from 500GB to 1TB. THANK YOU! <3

" Your Answer:


Hello,



Both of your cards were shipped from our warehouse on 8/25/2016. What exactly do you mean by tweaking them for high performance? Are you actively overclocking the cards? If so, overclocking can cause the cards to become unstable and only the factory OC clocks can be guaranteed. If the issue only happens when overclocking beyond the stock clock speeds, then this may be a limitation of the specific chip."

Not good.. before Aug 30th when the fix was made. What would the odds be if there both free of the black screen?? Slim. Good luck testing them.

Witcher 3 was the gold standard in testing for for the black screen 100% fan issue. Would happen with 3dmark firestrike bench test as well bit not common. Others say just gaming. For me 30 mins or sooner in witcher 3.

Both my FTW cards were purchased in June.... Run flawless and peg Witcher 3, The Division and Doom at 100fps ultra settings on a Asus PG348Q, The 34" ultra wide. Hopefully he doesn't run into any trouble with his but it does sound like he got the short end of the stick with this machine.
 
I bought my first gaming rig in early 1998 from a boutique shop in San Diego. Paid nearly $3000 and after investigating the parts, they ended up being 800 bucks worth. Since that time, I have built my own machines as I vowed I'd never be ripped off again.... The amazing this is, high end computer parts haven't really come down in price over the years, seems like 3k is the magic number not including custom water cooling loops of course...

You need to tweak the fan profile on those card. Don't run them with the default fan curve as your cards will idle back when they get up in temps.

Also would be nice to see more pics of the fans in the case.. to make sure there blowing in the right direction. I bet they mounted the cpu radiator in the front with the heat blowing onto your hot cards. Should be up top blowing hot air out and cool air and a lot of it blowing in front the front for your rad and graphics cards.

Look up jays2cents on youtube. He has a bunch of 1080 videos. One were he highlights how to adjust just the fan curve to up your cards performance and another for overclocking.. but with heat like that forget overclocking for now. You gota get those fan kicking.

Get them up to what you can bare during gaming. Try 75-85% when the temps get to 50+. Idle should be in the 30s. When your gaming they will get to the 50s-80s so it will crank the fans when needed and not after the fact when your cards are already hot in the upper 60-70 range.

Also all that heat is blowing in to your case. The founders edition 1080s were best with there blower style air cooler as it blows the heat out the back and not into your case. But your card is better thrn those.. the custom coolers are best for single cards not runing sli with all that heat in the case.

You need good exhaust to get the heat out and good cool air flow to the cards. The new evga case does a great job in that department with its added fans on the left of the cards that would blow cool air into the cards as needed. No other case does that.

Hiw can I achieve those fps? Please lmk because atm i am getting 30 -42 fps

His monitor is 3440X1440 which is 4,953,600 pixels.  You are running 3840X2160 which is 8,294,400 pixels.  You are running 1.67 times more pixels.  The easy answer is to move away from a 4K monitor to get those frame rates.

Don't want to instill fear but for some there black screens didn't happen for awhile. Some 2 weeks some over a month later. So it can be something that wears down over time possibly. Though evga will have you covered if it happends but with the hassle of sending it back on your dime if after 30 days and getting a refurbished card in return.

Also would be best to test ea card separately to check for the black screen.

Witcher 3 currently don't use sli either.. it did before the last update I've read. I've heard there's ways to make your own custom Nvidia sli profile for ea game to get them to work but I've never needed to do that for my games in the many years I've been using sli.
