wevsspot Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 Video card performance aside............ I'm just curious as to how you have your RAM configured as your first post says that you're running 14Gb of RAM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosco Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Try running just the 8GB stick and see what happens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wake boy45 Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 So I took out the other stick of ram and now the second GPU works in heaven. I am testing BF4 now to see if the activity stays at 100%. Are my timings off? Thank you all for the help so far by the way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wake boy45 Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 So i tested battlefield and now i get drops down to 6 fps and it will stall out for a few seconds at a time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wake boy45 Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Put two of the 1 gig sticks back in and it wouldn't boot. Got it to boot with the 8 gig and the 4 gig and i switched back my card's bios. I unlocked it (switched that tiny little switch by the CF bridge) back when i was trying to OC a single card. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wevsspot Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Lots of motherboards don't like to play pretty when you populate all the DIMM slots, especially when you start mixing RAM densities. That's why I asked how you had your 14Gb of memory configured, and I'm pretty sure the same reason that Bosco asked you to try with the single 8Gb module. So, now you have two DIMMs populated (one 8Gb / one 4Gb)? Clear your motherboard BIOS and reset to default values for now. Save changes. Exit. Run Memtest overnight. If Memtest passes do some stress testing on your platform. OCCT, Prime95 or IBT. If you go with OCCT test for two hours If you go with Prime95 test for eight hours If you go with IBT test for 10 loops If Memtest and one of the above stress testing programs pass with flying colors then you should be OK from the platform standpoint. The rest is up to the gpus. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wake boy45 Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 So on metro last light im getting 55-60 frames pretty constant with maxed 2x aa. How does that sound? Seldom i will drop below 50 but it happens a little. Because ive been hearing about problems with mantle and BF4. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wevsspot Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 That sounds pretty close to me based on a quick google around the web. The only way to know for sure though is if someone around here has a similar setup and the same game and willing to do some comparisons for you.
